Staff Perspective: What’s Ahead at the CDP in 2022?
It’s that time where we all reflect on 2021 (what a year!) and prepare for the year ahead. For me that also involves the routine, yet important task of renewing my professional insurance. A key element in that renewal process is to review the continuing education trainings I’ve completed. As I reflect on these professional activities, it also stirs excitement about things to come. Below I will share several new and continuing initiatives within CDP. As you professionally wrap up 2021 and move into 2022, use this blog as a guide to highlight CDP events of interest.
My hope is that you find CDP to be your professional home for high-quality, culturally mindful evidence-based psychotherapy training and education in military behavioral health. We would love to connect with you in 2022!
