What is Group Approaches for Community Trauma Response?

Psycho-educational group approaches with self-help and personal empowerment components will form the basis of this program. Various types of program promotion and admission procedures will be addressed.
The course is also designed to enhance skills development among individuals whose work, volunteer or personal activities bring them into contact with individuals or groups who have been directly exposed to trauma.
With our state-of-the-art technology, you will have unlimited access to this online, self-paced course for 160 days (as opposed to a 1- to 2-day training session) AND support all along the way.

I have had a great experience with the e-learning program in clinical traumatology, at TIC. I loved the combination of theory and clinical work. It is a very rich program and the possibility to apply what you’re learning with actual clients, in your own work environment, is such a great asset. The textbooks and the slideshows are clear and very well documented, with the latest research. You can work at your own pace, which is very convenient when you have a full-time job, like me. Overall, I recommend this program without hesitation! – Coline Snow, Clinical Psychologist, Montreal, PQ
