CDP News: February 14, 2014

Welcome to this week’s edition of CDP News. We like to use this space to review recent happenings in and around the Center for Deployment Psychology, while also looking ahead to upcoming events. Once again, the winter weather proved to be a challenge this week! Since we lost a couple of days to the snow and ice, we’ll keep it relatively short this week. Thankfully, we were able to complete the second section of the “Topics in Deployment Psychology” training on Wednesday before the weather rolled in. We want to thank all of our participants, as well as staff and presenters, for another successful iteration.

We’re continuing to add more training opportunities to the calendar as we finalize them. We’ve opened up registration for several more locations as part of our University Counseling Center Core Competency program. These include the University of Georgia – Athens, Clemson University, St. Cloud University, and the University of Massachusetts – Lowell. Registration for our week-long civilian training in D.C. is continuing to fill up fast. If you’re interested in attending, make sure you sign up soon. However, if you’re unable to attend that session in April, we’ll be holding another in June. We’ll be announcing the location and exact dates of that program soon. We’ll also be opening registration for our April and May online Prolonged Exposure Therapy training sessions in the next few weeks as well, so stay tuned for details.

The weather didn’t slow down our blog any though. In this week’s Staff Perspective column, Chris Adams took a look at some of the online educational opportunities that the CDP offers through our website. As many options as we’ve got, we’re always working to add more ways to help train providers, so if there’s anything you’d like to see us do, please contact us and let us know! This week’s Research Update is well-worth checking out as well. There’s plenty of great journal articles, relevant news and links to useful websites, so take a look.

That’s it for this week. Enjoy the holiday weekend everyone and we’ll see you back here next week!
