Credentialing Sessions from the 28th October 2024
Through the Australian DBT Institute's credentialing service, all eligible clinicians completing the final presentations have access to credentialing pathway 1 as a Credentialed DBT Practitioner! Credentialing is the process of establishing the qualifications of licensed professionals, organisational members or organisations, and assessing their background and legitimacy. Many health care institutions and provider networks conduct their own credentialing, generally through a credentialing specialist or electronic service, with review by a credentialing committee.
Credentialing sessions will occur during the week commencing Monday 28th October 2024 with each participant to present their application of DBT through a service based presentation and/or a case presentation. Presentations take approximately 20 minutes and are recorded and review by an independent credentialing committee.
Credentialing has been developed against Australian Clinical Practice Guidelines and Australian Professional Registration Bodies. The Australian DBT Institute and our partner organisations do not claim to have any affiliation with Behavioral Tech LLC. nor DBT®-Linehan Board of Certification.
