What you will study

The Psychiatric Technician Program is a 50-unit, three-semester full time program designed to prepare individuals to practice as licensed psychiatric technicians. The program integrates theoretical coursework with hands-on practical training. Clinical experiences take place at the California Department of State Hospitals, local health agencies, local unified school districts, and community service organizations. Upon successful completion of the program, Napa Valley College awards a Certificate of Completion in Psychiatric Technician.
