Introduction to the Program

Update your knowledge and practical skills in Psychopharmacology with the most complete, intensive, on-site and practical program in the educational market” 

The discovery of neurotransmitters that facilitate the absorption of psychotropic drugs in response to psychiatric or neurological disorders is one of the main innovations in the field of Psychopharmacology. This healthcare field has also benefited from research on the combination of anticonvulsant and antidepressant drugs against conditions such as Bulimia and Anorexia. However, not all specialists are up-to-date on these new developments. This is because, among other problems, the programs that address this discipline do so from an eminently theoretical perspective. Therefore, the practical skills necessary to develop this professional field of medicine with excellence are neglected.  

For this reason, TECH has burst onto the educational scene with a 100% practical and on-site qualification. From there, the physician will move to a first class hospital facility where they will verify, in a direct way, the impact of specific psychotropic drugs against pathologies such as Schizophrenia, Depression, some eating disorders, among other conditions. This intensive internship will last for 3 weeks, in 8-hour consecutive shifts, from Monday to Friday. During this period of time, they will also have the opportunity to analyze the latest trends in order to assess the psychopharmaceutical that best fits the patient's psychiatric diagnosis.

On the other hand, to support this exhaustive and direct learning process, the professional will be assisted by a designated tutor, who will check their progress and incorporate tasks to expand their daily practice. At the same time, they will have the opportunity to work with leading experts in the field and share their experiences with them with the utmost rigor.

A unique training experience, key and decisive to boost your professional development"
