In response to the need for trained psychological trauma teams in Florida, the Tampa Trauma Education Center launched training classes in Fall 2017.  Our first team completed the Green Cross Academy Certification courses to qualify as Field Traumatologists, ready for domestic or international deployment.

We discovered that our initial vision was too small to meet the needs. Our program has expanded into the Global Trauma Education Center. In addition to the Green Cross Academy certified trainings, we have developed a certification to meet the unique needs of Humanitarian and Missions Workers with the International Trauma Specialist (ITS) certification. 

Global Trauma Education Center training is open to mental health professionals, counseling and psychology students, social workers, nurses, physicians, military, law enforcement, clergy and community volunteers. We are inspired by these words of Helen Keller:

“Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.”

Join our Global Trauma Education Center training and become part of our teams working in Florida, the US and around the World.
