EMDR Training for Clinicians
The EMDR Center of Canada provides an EMDRIA‑approved, comprehensive Basic Training in EMDR Therapy that includes:
- Advanced EMDR protocols and concepts
- All ten hours of required consultation
- Four, three-day training sessions over three months
- Small class sizes
- One all-inclusive fee
- One comprehensive program
Our basic training in EMDR therapy is an EMDRIA approved program which exceeds EMDRIA's minimum requirements.
EMDRIA requires a minimum of 20 hours of lecture, 20 hours of practice, and 10 hours of consultation.
Our Virtual Training includes:
- 12 days of training (six hours per day)
- 36.5 hours of lecture
- 21.75 hours of practice
- 13.75 hours of consultation
Other programs often condense Basic Training into just two sessions.
Research on learning and training shows that “after two days of training, the ability to retain new information declines rapidly.”
In this program, the four training sessions are distributed over a twelve‑week period, with each session scheduled four to five weeks apart. This spacing provides participants time to practice new skills and review course materials between sessions.
Spacing the sessions in this way reinforces learning and supports long‑term integration. Clinicians can apply what they’ve learned in real settings, receive feedback, and refine their procedural skills to ensure proper application.
Consequently, dividing the training into four sessions promotes optimal learning, skill development, and integration of new knowledge.
