FAQs
Here you’ll find answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about Kase & CO trainings, certification, eligibility, payment and more.
General
Are your courses accredited?
Kase & CO is an EMDRIA, ACE, APA and NBCC approved continuing education provider.
Are your courses available live or on demand?
We are a virtual training company offering synchronous (live-interactive) and asynchronous (pre-recorded & on-demand) courses. Each training clearly identifies the training format it is offered in. Check the information at registration, or the landing page of the training you’re interested in for more information. It will vary.
For example, EMDR Basic Training is a live, synchronous course and must be attended live in real-time. However, all of our Advanced Trainings and special workshops can be attended live or on demand following the live event.
Do I need to be in the US to attend training?
You can sign up for courses with Kase & CO even if you’re not based in the United States.
However, be sure to check if your country or geographic area has an EMDR governing body. There is EMDR Australia, EMDR UK, EMDR Europe and EMDR Asia. Check those sights as appropriate for information about training in your area.
Do you offer payment plans? Does it cost more to pay in installments?
We offer payment plans for EMDR Basic Training, Certification, and Consultant Training. You have the option to pay all at once or in installments. At the time of registration, you’ll be asked to select your payment plan and be able to view upcoming payment due dates. All payment plans are set to auto-debit on your set due date. There is no additional cost to pay with a payment plan.
Do you offer reduced rates or scholarships?
We recognize that systemic racism has created many social barriers for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), including a lack of equity in education and certification. In an effort to make a difference among mental health professionals and social service providers, we offer annual scholarships for EMDR Basic training for BIPOC mental health professionals. Learn more about our BIPOC Scholarship Fund or apply.
We also occasionally offer promotional codes in our monthly mailers and on social media. Be sure to subscribe to our mailing list and follow us on social.
Can I pay by check?
We are currently not accepting checks as a form of payment. Please contact us to discuss payment options.
Basic Training
I learned some EMDR, but it has been awhile. What is best for me?
Basic Training is the first stop in becoming qualified to practice EMDR. If it’s been some time since you completed Basic Training, take our Refresher Course to polish up your skills and get back in the game! We also recommend getting connected for consultation.
If you never finished EMDR Basic Training then that is your first step!
Who is eligible to take EMDR Basic Training?
Mental health professionals who are license-eligible may attend EMDR Basic Training. Interns and graduate students may attend, but they must be in the clinical portion of their graduate program training. (You must be enrolled in a qualifying program, but you do not need to be licensed to attend training.) For further reference, please review EMDRIA’s Eligibility Requirements.
Is your EMDR Basic Training EMDRIA approved?
Kase & CO is an EMDRIA approved provider. We are also an approved EMDR Basic Training provider with ACE, APA and NBCC.
How long does it take to complete EMDR Basic Training?
EMDR Basic Training takes about 6 months to complete from start to finish. However, you do have up to 12 months to complete your consultation hours per EMDRIA.
If I complete Basic Training am I EMDR Certified?
After Basic Training, you will be an EMDR clinician. However, certification is a level of advanced training that you can pursue after you complete Basic Training. You can think of Basic Training like a bachelor’s degree in EMDR, and Certification like a master’s degree. You have to get your bachelor’s degree first before you can pursue your master’s degree.
After completing EMDR Basic Training with Kase & CO, you can continue with your training to get EMDR Certified. Learn more about the requirements of Certification and our EMDR Certification program here.
Can I practice EMDR after Basic Training?
Yes! You can start practicing with clients after your first training intensive.
How do consultation hours in Basic Training work?
Your consultation groups will be selected on the second day of your Part 1 training weekend. You will be given multiple options to choose from, which will vary by day of the week, time and consultant. To give you time for scheduling and planning, your consultation groups will begin at least three weeks after your Part 1 training.
I have already taken EMDR Basic Training Part 1 elsewhere. Can I take Part 2 with you?
Transferring to a different program for Part 2 of Basic Training can be tricky. We need to ensure the program you attended for Part 1 meets Kase & CO standards. If you’re interested in completing your Part 2 training with us, please email us. We’ll need to know when you completed Part 1, as well as who you completed it with to see if it is a good fit!
I completed EMDR Basic Training but would like to sit through the lectures again. Do you offer that?
We do offer our Basic Training, lectures only, for a discounted rate. If you’re interested in auditing our lectures, please email us.
Certification
I took EMDR Basic Training but it has been awhile since I used in practice. What is best for me?
When it comes to Certification, many clinicians start the process feeling rusty and out of practice. Certification will get you back in the swing of things and practicing at an expert level.
Our EMDR Certification packages also include our EMDR Refresher Course which will help you refresh your memory and polish up your skills!
What is EMDR Certification?
EMDR Certification is an advanced level of training and skill as an EMDR therapist. It is a standard that’s overseen by EMDRIA. EMDR Certification will teach you to be an advanced, expert level EMDR therapist. It requires additional training beyond that which you complete in EMDR Basic Training.
What does EMDR Certification require?
As outlined by EMDRIA, EMDR Certification requires 20 additional hours of consultation beyond the 10 you complete for Basic Training. It also requires that you practice with a certain number of certain number of clients and that you have additional CEs in advanced EMDR training.
Here’s a summary of the EMDR Certification requirements:
- 10 hours of individual consultation
10 hours of group consultation
12 hours of advanced training in EMDR (courses must be EMDRIA approved)
At least 50 hours of EMDR practice with at least 25 clients
3 letters of recommendation
EMDRIA also states that you must be licensed when you submit your application for certification. While you don’t have to be licensed when you start working on these requirements, you do need your license for your application to be approved.
What are the benefits of getting EMDR Certified?
There are a lot of benefits and reasons to get EMDR Certified.
Here are some of the most common benefits that clinicians report:
- -Learn advanced skills to work with greater clinical complexity and specialty clients.
-Align with a highly researched, evidence-based practice.
-Attract more clients interested in EMDR.
-Become an expert in EMDR.
-Find confidence as an EMDR therapist.
-Hone your EMDR niche. Become an EMDR specialist with the techniques or populations you specialize in! (ex: addictions, dissociation, kids, IFS, somatic therapy)
-Learn the skills to help your clients heal.
-Get an advanced credential for less time and money compared to other advanced programs (IFS, Somatic Experiencing, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy). While these programs are phenomenal, they take a whole lot of time and money. They also aren’t as well supported in scientific research as EMDR. EMDR Certification makes you an expert in an evidence-based therapy in less time and for less money.
