More than a refresher course:
EMDRAA Accredited
Day 1-2: 22 - 23 February 2025
Days 3-5: 8 - 10 March 2025 (VIC Labour Day Weekend)
We invite EMDR therapists to join our training program to hone their EMDR skills through our program, developed by Roy Kiessling, founder of EMDR Consulting (USA). You will learn how to use Target Sequence Planning, the Processing Continuum and the Positive Belief system to increase your efficacy as well as provide client-centred therapy.
As a not-for-profit organisation, the TRNA provides training in marginalised areas to build trauma treatment capacity for those in need. To support our objective, we also seek to create a community of local EMDR therapists to provide peer consultation, work together after disasters, and share local information.
You will be provided with the full program of training materials including the manual, videos of lectures for review, access to the TRNA training library and ongoing community support.
As you have completed EMDR training previously, consultation is not included in the price, but you may join our consultation groups at a separate cost if you wish. The hours of training may be counted as CPD for EMDRAA as well as your profession.
Rural Workforce Australia Victoria Grants Program
There are several government grants to support professional development for mental health clinicians working in rural and remote areas which can be used for our training. We have been advised that the Allied Health and Nursing Upskilling Grant applications will be open on 1 February 2025 for training commencing after that date. This grant supports practitioners working in Ballarat (an MMM 2 area) with up to $1000 in funding.
People who wish to attend from more rural areas outside Ballarat (MMM3+) may wish to consider applying for a grant through the Health Workforce Scholarship Program (HWSP) within the Regional Workforce Agency Victoria (RWAV). The program provides funding of up to $10,000 per eligible practitioner per financial year for workshops, post-graduate qualifications, short courses, conferences, professional development requirements of the applicant’s professional registration and/or association, recognised industry skills training, travel and accommodation and more.
The grant round will be open for all of February but you must apply at least one day before the training begins to be eligible, the grants are highly competitive, so the funding cannot be guaranteed.
Applicants will need to pay for the training then claim reimbursement from RWAV, you do not have to have paid before you put in your grant application. The sooner you get the application in, you will find out if you obtain a grant - so we suggest you get you application in on 1 February.
