Continuing education at the highest level

Research, knowledge and practice continually evolve in the field of psychiatry and psychotherapy. At the WPA XVII WORLD CONGRESS OF PSYCHIATRY you can keep your knowledge up to date and expand it.

The educational programme will consider scientific and procedure-related knowledge that contributes to the preservation and further development of psychiatric-psychotherapeutic skills. The focus is on the teaching of subject-specific and interdisciplinary contents and practicing practical skills. The WPA XVII WORLD CONGRESS OF PSYCHIATRY and the Educational Programme are certified with continuing education points (CME). Additionally the organiser is seeking an UEMS-EACCME-accreditation.
