Professional Program in Trauma-Informed Interventions

"You have to know which programs you think will qualify you best for the job you aim to have."

Stephanie Bisgaard

Professional Program in Trauma-Informed Interventions

Due to low enrollment, this program will no longer accept new certificate registrations after October 15, 2020. Many courses in the existing curriculum will continue to run through spring 2021. For additional information about continuing education workshops in Behavioral Health, please visit the American Psychological Association website.

Researchers have documented the prevalence of trauma in the lives of the vast majority of public sector clients. Programs and systems that are seeking to integrate trauma-informed interventions include mental health, substance abuse, criminal justice, victim assistance and child welfare.

Post-traumatic stress disorders and other trauma-related disorders and symptoms are increasing in the population of war veterans and those who have been exposed to other forms of violence in urban and domestic settings. With the innovative Professional Program in Trauma-Informed Interventions, you can learn to serve your clients better-and improve your practice-through evidence-based assessment and treatment models developed for trauma victims.
