Fw: psychodrama program

[Adam Blatner]

Dear friends,  I've had an interesting conversation with a fellow from Denmark seeking 
graduate training in the USA in psychodrama. The only program he found offering a PhD 
program was this one
   http://www.itp.edu/academics/spotPsychodrama.cfm

      Interestingly, I know the institute, one of the more established new age programs, 
and even had some brief
correspondence with the fellow teaching the class, Harris Clemes, Ph.D.(1961). I 
encouraged him to come to the national psychodrama conference last April, but he had other 
commitments. His own training was with a fellow who never was part of the field. I've 
encouraged him to become more well-read in the field. This is an example of people seeing 
it and thinking they can do it, and one of the reasons that a certification Board was felt 
to be necessary.
      I was a bit shocked and dismayed that they don't just teach a few courses, but 
presume to offer a PhD in psychodrama. I plan to write them and question this.

    I wonder how often classes are being taught by people with no formal Morenian 
psychodrama trainng.
                Warmly, Adam
