Director’s Certificate of Behavioral Health

July 11-12, 2019

 

Program Description

The Director’s Certificate of Behavioral Health is offered through the University of Missouri – St. Louis (UMSL), Missouri Institute of Mental Health (MIMH). For nearly 60 years, MIMH has provided quality continuing education to behavioral health professionals in Missouri. MIMH is part of the University of Missouri – St. Louis; and as such, our trainings include continuing education units (CEUs) that are supported by an accredited university and accepted by many professional licensing boards.

The Director’s Certificate of Behavioral Health is a two-day training program designed to provide fundamental education on behavioral health disorders to those interested in gaining basic knowledge about behavioral health, including discussions on historical and current treatment approaches, risk factors, signs and symptoms, prevention strategies, person-first language, strengths-based approaches and practice using professional ethical codes when examining cases. This course may compliment many degree programs and/or professions geared towards service; however, this course is open to the general public and anyone can attend. The content in this course may be familiar to professionals who have many years practicing in the field such as social workers, nurses, mental health professionals, counselors, psychiatrists, etc.; therefore, may serve as more of a refresher course in regards to the behavioral health content. Individuals who work in the behavioral health field, but who may not have a behavioral health background or see clients/consumers, may find this course beneficial. This certification could satisfy over half of the required continuing education units for many professional licensing boards in the state of Missouri and aide in career advancement. Sixteen (16) clock hours, including two (2) hours in Ethics, will be awarded upon completion of this training. Review the objectives and course outline below to see if this course could benefit you.
