The PSP Certification Program™ consists of a total of approximately 120 hours of instruction. The program is divided into 4 “units” of instruction, with each unit consisting of two parts: 1) a set of online educational modules (8 -12 hours) and 2) a weekend skill-building workshop (16 hours), along with 2 supportive textbooks. Students are required to pass quizzes accompanying each online educational module. Following each live weekend course, students will also need to pass a unit test which covers both the on-line learning and live coursework. There is also a final practical competency exam that will be given after the last weekend course (Unit 4) of the PSP series.
