Certified PCIT Site Trainer (PCIT-ST) Requirements

Certified PCIT Site Trainers (PCIT-ST) are practitioners who have already met the PCIT & TCIT Training Corporation credential standards as both a PCIT Certified Practitioner (PCIT-CP), and Certified PCIT Individual Trainer (PCIT-IT).  These individuals have then received additional PCIT training to be qualified to teach and supervise therapists – from around the world – at their own program or agency.  The scope of PCIT-ST trainership is limited to a specific, individual, training site location. 

Why Become Certified as a Trainer?
Certification has been developed in response to therapists, agencies, and third-party payers who have long asked how PCIT providers can document they have met a set of standards for competent delivery of the treatment. Certification is one way to promote the effective dissemination of PCIT nationally and internationally.
