FAQs
How long after attending Level 1 training can I enrol in Level 2 training?
There is no strict rule around the number of clients you must have seen, or period of time since Level 1, and we understand this will vary depending on how and where you practice. However, as a general guide we recommend that after seeing four clients or using EMDR for 12 sessions, you are probably getting comfortable with the standard protocol and ready build on your skills and knowledge.
I completed my level 1 training with a different training provider. Can I still enrol in this course?
Yes, so long as you completed your level 1 training with an EMDRAA Accredited provider.
If it has been more than three years since you completed level 1 training, please contact us to discuss whether you will need to do anything else prior to attending the workshop.
