All required work must be completed within six years unless an extension
is granted by the Director of Training. When the required curriculum
has been completed, candidates must take three elective courses per
year. Clinical Case Seminars are strongly recommended. Candidates
are permitted to change the sequence of certain courses if they feel
it will be helpful in their training. If a variation in sequence is
desired, candidates should contact the Director of Curriculum. If
personal issues require a candidate to limit time commitments or otherwise
alter the curriculum, individual arrangements may be made through
the Director of Curriculum.
Trimesters are 10 weeks long. The first trimester begins one week
after Labor Day. The second trimester begins in November. The third
trimester begins in March. Courses
are not scheduled on Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, and the eve of Passover.
There is a five week break from December to January. Additionally,
the Institute is closed on all legal holidays.
