Online EMDR Training Participant Addendum

The participant acknowledges that she/he/they has thoroughly and carefully read, understands, and agrees to the following additional information regarding participation in Online EMDR Therapy Training.

  1. Technical Requirements The participant will adhere to the Online EMDR Therapy Training Technical Requirements and have the minimum hardware and software prepared and available, prior to and during the virtual EMDR training event.
  2. Video Cameras During Virtual EMDR basic trainings, trainees must have their cameras turned on so that training faculty can monitor attendance, visual cues, facial expressions, etc.
  3. Private/Confidential Space The participant will attend the virtual training from a therapeutic environment, without another person present, not in a moving vehicle, not in a public space.
  4. Malpractice Insurance Prior to admittance to an EMDR training event, the participant agrees to review their own Malpractice Insurance policy to determine whether or not their services will be covered and to consider any limitations or jurisdictional restrictions which may be in place.
  5. Current Capacity Level Potential registrants who themselves, or a member of their household or family, are currently experiencing high levels of traumatic stress (i.e. in treatment for life-threatening medical conditions like COVID 19) are advised to consider their own capacity. While the EMDR Therapy training is designed to help regulate the intensity of exposure, the nature of the content and exercises may exacerbate current levels of stress.
  6. Safety/Backup Plan The participant will provide the phone numbers of one personal emergency contact (for example – friend, neighbor, or family member) and one local emergency response agency (for example – local crisis hot line or police). All training facilitators will be performing reasonable safety checks. The participant will give their consent, at a facilitator’s discretion, for any EMDR Training Center staff to call the participant’s emergency contacts, on their behalf.
