For professionals in the field: New online seminar covers research issues for mental health consumers
The Center for Psychiatric Rehabilitation at Boston University is offering a new Professional Development online seminar, "Research Issues for Mental Health Consumers/Survivors."
The basic concepts, terms, and procedures of research are outlined in this seminar, which "will help participants to become aware of the various roles consumers/survivors can play in a research study, and their rights in the research process." This increased awareness "will allow participants to better understand the research studies that consumers/survivors are involved in, as well as the research study results."
Successful participation in this online seminar earns 10 Professional Development Program (PDP) hours, which may be used for continuing education purposes.
