Certificate participants attend through video conference the Psy.D. program's Forensic concentration courses on a weekly basis for up to 30 hours.

Licensed professionals are expected to work an additional three hours per week conducting services or report writing.
Once participants have a case, they will work individually. Case consultation is conducted on an ongoing basis through the use of teleconferencing and video streaming is scheduled at a mutually convenient time. Three case consultations that range from 95 to 250 hours, including drafting and reviewing of case materials, are scheduled at your convenience. For every five hours of case work completed, participants receive an hour of live consultation from the certificate faculty.
