Continuing Education and Residency Training
REACH PPP
NC-PAL is pleased to offer a nationally recognized mental health training program for primary care providers in North Carolina at no cost to participants!
REACH’s Patient-Centered Mental Health in Pediatric Primary Care Mini-Fellowship Program (PPP) provides primary care providers with up-to-date, evidenced-based training in the diagnosis and treatment of children’s mental health conditions.
Lunch and Learn
Broaden your knowledge of pediatric mental health and earn CME credits—on your lunch break!
In each session of our Lunch & Learn series, an expert speaker will share diagnostic strategies, treatment approaches, and practical tips for addressing pediatric behavioral health concerns. There's no charge for these webinars, so register today!
Be ExPeRT
Behavioral Expansion in Pediatric Residency Training (Be ExPeRT) courses are led by Duke Child Psychiatry faculty fellows and involve dynamic four-hour seminars. Six monthly-hour-long, case-based discussions close out the training. This dynamic program is rooted in evidence-based adult learning strategies. Trainees learn the basics of assessment and management of pediatric anxiety, depression, and ADHD, as well as acute behavioral agitation.
The continuing education program is currently active within the Duke Pediatrics and Internal Medicine-Pediatrics residency programs and will be expanding to other pediatrics training programs as well as Family Medicine, Physician Assistant, and Nurse Practitioner training programs throughout North Carolina. Contact us if you're interested in adapting Be ExPeRT to fit the needs of your program.
