High-quality schema therapy training should remain accessible to clinicians worldwide; therefore, our tuition structure is intentionally designed to be fair, flexible, and transparent. At the same time, this structure reflects global economic differences and humanitarian realities, which allows clinicians from diverse regions to participate meaningfully.
To support these goals, several tuition pathways are available. First, a one-time payment option allows participants to pay in full and receive the lowest total cost; alternatively, an installment plan spreads tuition across four equal payments to increase affordability. Finally, tiered tuition rates (A–D) follow the World Bank country income classifications from July 2025 and incorporate humanitarian considerations when appropriate.
Importantly, the country of residence during training determines the applicable tuition tier; consequently, citizenship does not affect pricing.
Before any payment is made, applicants must first be accepted into a program. Once approval is granted, invoices are issued directly with detailed payment instructions; accordingly, payment should be submitted only after confirmation and invoicing.
Supervision follows the same tiered tuition structure used throughout this page; as a result, rates vary according to country of residence and humanitarian context rather than supervision format alone.
Specifically, Tier A supervision reflects high-income economies, whereas Tier B supervision aligns with upper-middle income regions.
Meanwhile, Tier C supervision corresponds to lower-middle-income contexts.
Tier D supervision applies in humanitarian or conflict-affected situations, including Ukraine.
After acceptance, don’t hesitate to contact us directly to confirm the supervision tuition details.

Meanwhile, Tier B countries pay a discounted full tuition of $795, with four payments of $230 over time.
In Tier C countries, reduced tuition totals $550, or four payments of $170 using the installment option.

In exceptional circumstances, Tier D applies to clinicians living or primarily practicing in regions affected by active conflict, humanitarian crisis, or severe economic disruption; consequently, this tier includes Ukraine, World Bank-classified low-income countries, and other conflict-affected contexts. Because of these realities, Tier D tuition uses special honorary or humanitarian rates and requires approval.
Refunds are not possible under any circumstances; nevertheless, because the program operates with limited enrollment and depends on committed participation, participants who cannot complete the program may defer completion for up to one year and join a future cohort within that period.
