About the NCRP Intensive

This 3.5-day intensive will provide learners with intensive training in reproductive psychiatry using the NCRP curriculum.

Reproductive Psychiatry is one of the fastest growing and most in-demand fields of medicine, yet training in this specialty area can be difficult to obtain. Now you can get the training you have been waiting for:

  • A practical, intensive, comprehensive, case-based workshop (3.5 days) approved for AMA PRA Category 1 Credit, ANCC, and AAPA Category 1 CME. (23 credits maximum)
  • Learn to diagnose and treat psychiatric illness during pregnancy, postpartum, infertility, perinatal loss, the premenstrual period, and perimenopause
  • Successful completion of the exam at the conclusion of the training will lead to a Certificate of Attendance and eligibility to enroll in an NCRP-facilitated longitudinal supervision in reproductive psychiatry

The National Curriculum in Reproductive Psychiatry, affiliated with the Marce Society of North America (MONA), focuses on training frontline clinicians in treating mental illnesses arising at times of reproductive hormonal transition throughout the reproductive lifespan.
