In special one- or two-day classes held throughout the year, the FPT Center hosts visiting presenters who are highly qualified practitioners and theorists, generally authors of books. These seminars offer therapists the opportunity to keep in touch with creative applications that are developing in the professional community, in an accessible format and a pleasant environment. Participants in these events can earn credit hours from various organizations, including APT, and PA Board of Social Workers, Marriage & Family Therapists and Professional Counselors. (Many students around the country are finding that their board accepts PA Continuing education hours); Certification renewal for American Nurses Credentialing Center.
