EPA Platform FAQ

This platform has been created by the European Psychiatric Association to host all its current and future online learning material. We regularly upload new content and online courses, so stay tuned!

For an overview of all available courses, check out our Courses catalogue.

Each course has been designed to give you an exclusive training on a specific topic (motivational interviewing, depression, therapy, etc.) in an innovative way: you will be able to experience a new way to train and expend your knowledge with videos, filmed role plays, quizzes and more!

Our online courses have been created jointly between the EPA and our course instructors. They are available to all interested learners around the world, all year long.
