Pod Meeting Times for our upcoming June 2025 Cohort
A standout feature of the Psychedelic Practitioner Core Training is the intimate group learning experience. Participants progress through the program in groups of up to ten students, which we affectionately refer to as "pods."
Each pod, guided by an experienced learning facilitator, will convene for 2.5 hours weekly from June 2025 through June 2026, excluding breaks in August 2025, December 2025 and April 2026.
Participants must attend a minimum of 80% of the pod sessions in order to receive a certificate of completion. Our expectation is that you will attend every pod session; however, we understand that it may, on occasion not be possible to do so.
Available Pod Times for the upcoming June 2025 cohort include:
-
10:00 a.m. PT / 1:00 p.m. ET / 7:00 p.m. CET
-
12:00 p.m. PT / 3:00 p.m. ET / 9:00 p.m. CET
- 1:00 a.m. PT / 4:00 a.m. ET / 10 a.m. CET
Fridays:
- 9:00 a.m. PT / 12:00 p.m. ET / 6:00 p.m. CET
