Continuing Education
For many years, AGAPE has provided training modules for mental health professionals and students through our Therapy Training Institute. These courses provide opportunities for mental health professionals to enhance their skills in specific areas while earning continuing education (CE) credits. CE credits are provided through Lipscomb University’s master’s degree program in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.
Our upcoming course offerings are listed below.
