You will now have the option to add two Supported Education units to the end of the Practitioner Skills Course. These optional units are replacing our IPS for Young Adults course. To add these units, simply select the option for “IPS Practitioner + Supported Education” during registration. The optional units will add an additional cost to the course.<\/p>\n

If you have previously taken the Practitioner Skills Course and would like to add the units on Supported Education, you may register for only those units on the registration page.<\/p>\n

With the optional units, the course will take 15 weeks.<\/p>\n<\/div>
