About This Course
At the core of the FETI Methodology Course is an interactive online experience taught by Certified FETI Advanced (CFP-A) instructors with significant industry and FETI interviewing experience. The course provides instruction on the official FETI Framework™, detailing how to correctly conduct a Forensic Experiential Trauma Interview in addition to a library of information and resources.
Attendees of the FETI Methodology Course, step 1 on the path to Basic Certification in the FETI Methodology, are encouraged to enroll in step 2, the Practical Application of the Forensic Experiential Trauma Interview Course, where interviews are conducted, practiced, and evaluated by our instructors in a small and highly effective learning environment.
Attendees must complete all required coursework and fully participate in all required exercises to receive a certificate of completion. Attendees with a certificate of completion achieve the prerequisite requirement to attend the Practical Application of FETI course.

Attendees intending to be identified as a practitioner of Certified FETI are required to fulfill all requirements of, at a minimum, Basic Certification. Attendees intending to instruct Certified FETI are required to fulfill requirements of Advanced Certification and then apply for a specialty designation of Instructor.
