October 10-11, 2025
November 14-15, 2025
January 9-10, 2026
February 27-28, 2026
You can pay for each weekend separately over the course of the year but are committing to attending all four weekends when you sign up for the first session.
QUALIFICATIONS
To be eligible to participate in Extended Core Skills series, participants must be licensed therapists, postgraduate pre-licensed therapists, or in a graduate program studying therapy/counseling.
PREREQUISITES
To participate in Extended Core Skills Training, you must:
have completed an ICEEFT approved 4-Day Externship in Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples
be willing to be videotaped for case consultation and have signed releases from clients to share the video
AGREEMENTS
Completing the registration and paying the first payment of Core Skills Training series enrolls the applicant in the full course series and reserves the space for attendance in all sessions of the training and is a declaration of intent to complete the course and pay for remaining 3 weekends. This is important because space in the course is limited. We have found over the years that Core Skills works best when all participants attend all sessions. However we know sometimes exceptions need to be made. We will do our best to work with you regarding special and unforeseen circumstances.
CANCELLATION POLICY
A $50 flat administration Fee will be charged for all refunds. Refunds of course fees (minus the $50.00 administrative fee) will be issued for requests made up to 14 days prior to the start date. Cancellations within 8-13 days of the start date of the event will be offered a 50% refund. No refunds will be offered within 7 days of the start date of the event.
CEU INFORMATION
We will apply for 48 CEU’s (12 per 2-day weekend) through the Minnesota Board of Marriage and Family Therapy.
CERTIFICATION
Completion of training does not guarantee competence or certification in EFT. Bringing your own video to view is necessary to meet the advanced requirement of certification. Attendance meets the ICEEFT course requirement when applying for Certified EFT Therapist designation. The only outstanding requirement for certification after attending Core Skills training is eight hours of individual supervision. Learn more about the application process here.
