New ICD-11 online course in May 2022

Another chance to take part in the World Psychiatric Association and Global Mental Health Academy jointly sponsored ICD-11 Diagnostic Guidelines for Mental, Behavioural or Neurodevelopmental Disorders online course

Dear Friends,

Following the success of the new ICD-11 Diagnostic Guidelines for Mental, Behavioural or Neurodevelopmental Disorder online course back in November last year, I am delighted to let you know we are running the course again in May.

As with the previous course, this 4-week live online course will provide an overview of the key principles of the WHO’s ICD-11 and in-depth knowledge about the ICD-11 CDDR. The training faculty for the course are renowned global experts who have been deeply involved for more than a decade in leading the development, testing, and implementation of the ICD-11 classification of Mental, Behavioural or Neurodevelopmental Disorders.

Unlike other workshops, this course will emphasize active participation through application of the CDDR to clinical cases and participant panel discussions of diagnostic dilemmas, led by faculty. Our faculty initiated this training methodology in 2016 for ICD11 field studies conducted by International Field Study Centres around the world. This methodology produced very high reliability and clinical utility for the ICD-11, outperforming the ICD-10.
