Can be admitted all those who have a degree in Medicine or Psychology, who are already registered to the membership board, or, if they have not taken the state exam at the time of registration, they have to take it before the first session available after registration, penalty the suspension from the course of specialisation till the regularisation of their position.
The Applicant must present his own curriculum and undertake one or, if necessary, more individual evaluation interviews with a teacher (or a Psychotherapist qualified to the position) from SIPT, as verification of the personal requirements for admission.
He must also prove, with a certificate of attendance, to have attended an introductory course of Psychosynthesis in one of the Centres of the Institute of Psychosynthesis (see list of the Italian centres on www.psicosintesi.it).
If the applicant is unable to attend the introductory course, alternate ways can be provided and must agreed directly with the School.
In case of approval, the Applicant must submit a written application for admission to the School Office attaching the written approval of the teacher or Psychotherapist, who made the assessment, a curriculum and the certificate of attendance to the introductory course.
Upon acceptance, ratified by the Council of Teachers of the School, it will be given written notice.
Attendance to course is compulsory. Leave of absence should not exceed 20% per annum. At the end of each year of course, a session of written and oral exams will take place.
At the end of the fourth year, we will also request a written report on a case study in supervision and a written thesis with following discussion, which will be the final exam leading to the award of the certificate of completion of psychotherapeutic education.
