UPDATE APRIL 2020
As we all, individually and as a society come to terms with the implications that the COVID-19 pandemic has on our lives and our workplaces we need to postpone the BPD Core Competency and Train the Trainers workshops for now.
The Australian BPD Foundation and Spectrum are both committed to delivering all of our scheduled 2020 training workshops as soon as it is safe to do so. We will provide significant notice of the new workshop dates once it is safe to do so.
We are holding our EOI open (until we have reached a maximum of 200 EOIs for each workshop) with the dates for the workshops still to be confirmed. At this stage we anticipate that the workshops in Perth and Bunbury will proceed as scheduled. We will endeavour to reschedule all affected workshops as soon as possible and provide regular updates to those registered. You can register your EOI using the link below.
Developed in partnership between Australian BPD Foundation and Spectrum Personality Disorder Service. This project was undertaken with funding from the National Mental Health Commission.
