About Our Trainings
We have arranged with PeerPoint to provide a certificate of training, which will go out to each participant after the conclusion of each training. This will provide 30 AMA Category I credits, which apply to medical practitioners and therapists—acceptable to licensing boards in over 40 states. Do confirm this with your Board if you have a question about this. Embedded in our fee structure for CE is $150 and is included in your tuition.
We look forward to being with you in profound learning, experiential, and connecting events that continue to move KAP forward and support our developing practices.
You will learn and enjoy yourselves. We look forward to being with you.

Covid Precautions
KTC has had its own experiences with COVID disrupting our programs and we wish to take appropriate and necessary precautions:
- COVID-19 VACCINATION IS A REQUIREMENT FOR ATTENDANCE.
- Please test two days before attending the program.
- Please test the morning of the program before leaving your abode.
- We will test on arrival so long as the Covid risk is present. We follow CDC guidelines.
- We may test subsequently during the training.
- If training is canceled due to COVID-19, we will refund fees minus $100 if the cancellation precedes the commencement of the training, with consideration for any non-refundable expenses we have made.
- If training is canceled during its course, refunds will be prorated to the length of the training and expenses incurred.
- If an individual contracts COVID-19 and cannot attend the training, a refund will be made according to expenses expended by KTC.
- If an individual contracts COVID-19 during the training, they will be asked to leave the training, and a refund will be made according to the duration of their presence in the training and expenses incurred.
- If a person becomes COVID-19-positive during the training and leaves, it is up to the other participants to decide to stay or leave. Testing will be conducted daily. Suppose a participant makes a voluntary decision to leave the training. In that case, they will have their remaining fees (after deduction for expenses incurred to the time of their departure) put forward towards another training. KTC will hold the remaining credit for up to 12 months from the time of the training. KTC will do its best to provide training during that period.
Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.

Lucid News - Awakening a Broad and Critical Understanding of Ketamine
The Ketamine Research Foundation and its practitioner authors share our article for awakening a broad and critical understanding of the spectrum of benefits and hazards of ketamine’s use. As practitioners we are exposed to and probe the personal bases for ketamine’s extraordinary positive value to allay human suffering and for its dependence. We offer this work to increase knowledge about ketamine and ketamine assisted psychotherapy and to further compassionate awareness to individual susceptibilities and experiences. Our article is long and intricate in order to provide a full view. And in Memory of Ken Jordan, who honored us with his deeply thoughtful editing, this as his last contribution.

THE NEW YORKER Ketamine Therapy Is Going Mainstream. Are We Ready?
The mind-altering drug has been shown to help people suffering from anxiety and depression. But how it helps, who it will serve, and who will profit are open questions.
About us
The Ketamine Training Center (KTC) has been presenting our Fundamentals Training for over 4 years with more than 800 participants in our 5–6-day experiential programs. Practitioners represent the spectrum of licensed prescribers, psychotherapists, and clergy—with an international presence.
Our programs begin with on-line sessions preceding the in-person presence at our extraordinary residential retreat centers east, west, and abroad. Non-denominational ritual, yoga and meditation are voluntary component parts of our sessions in conformity with the use of ketamine as an alternative and psychedelic medicine. We are the evolving methodological ground for the expanding therapeutic use of alternative medicines–alternative to conventional Pharma and psychiatry.
Essential to the provision of mind-altering medicines is personal experience with them.
In the context of our 30-40 participant trainings, practitioners are exposed to a broad range of experiences facilitating awareness both personally and in the evolving communities of our trainings— and then in the follow-up sessions that continue cohesion and communication. Our Ketamine Psychotherapy Associates membership program furthers the development of practitioners, practices, and therapeutics with consistent input, support and benefits that build competency, cohesion, awareness, and program.
The Fundamentals Training is rich in awakening movement and emotion in each of us with our Expanded Awareness and Sharing. Low dose psycholytic small groups, presentations on ketamine neuroscience by the renowned Jason Wallach, therapeutic strategies, mindfulness, trauma often with Bessel van der Kolk and Licia Sky, psychodynamics, IFS, gestalt, psychedelic medicine therapeutics, and much more are woven into our programs.
Our Leadership Group will vary in composition and will include Phil Wolfson, author of The Ketamine Papers. Group experiences of our methods for administering sublingual lozenges and intramuscular injections of ketamine are a fundamental part of the experience, with early competency development in these forms of administration—in the two roles or sitter/therapist and recipient.
We welcome your interest, applications, and presence!
