Somatic Experiencing SE® Professional Training Adv I

Registration for the Advanced year is done on an Approval Process. To be Approved, you must have completed your Intermediate III training module. If you have registered for, but have not yet completed your Intermediate III training module and are interested in registering for this training, you may be Approved provided your Intermediate III training module is completed at least 60-days prior to the start date of this Advanced I training module. Advanced trainings are regional trainings, not cohorts, therefore your registration in an Intermediate III training module does not secure your spot in Advanced I. Advanced spots are only secured once payment is processed.

APPLY FOR APPROVAL to this Advanced I training module by using the Advanced Registration Request form, found on our My Info (My Forms) webpage.

Your request will be reviewed, and you will receive a response via email. If approved, the email will provide you with your unique, portal registration to register.

SE Professional Training Advanced I Course Description

The Advanced level does not follow the same cohort structure as the Beginning and Intermediate levels. This means attendance in Advanced I does not guarantee attendance in Advanced II. Advanced trainings are primarily held regionally and in person (with limited online options). Only Advanced I offers a post-training Review Video – an asynchronous course delivery method, meaning no continuing education (CE) credits are awarded for the post-training Review Video. We do offer some Advanced I in person synchronous trainings that will offer mental health professional continuing education credits. Please always double check the CE Information tab above to see what CEs will be offered. As a reminder, all Advanced II trainings are in person synchronous trainings but do not come with any mental health professional continuing education credits. If you are unable to attend your training module, you may request to transfer your registration to another Advanced level training provided space is available.
