I found the Professional Certificate in Understanding Dissociative Identity Disorder (Advanced) to be a solid course that met my expectations.

The course materials were well-organized, and the instructors were knowledgeable. I appreciated the opportunity to engage with peers from diverse backgrounds and learn from their experiences. One area for improvement could be the addition of more Latin American case studies, as this would make the course more relatable to my region.
