Program Modality and Schedule

Program Modality

The UW Infant, Early Childhood and Family Mental Health Capstone Certificate Program is offered using two different modalities (in-person and on-line) on alternating years; thus, fellows have the opportunity to select the modality that works well for their circumstances and/or learning preferences.  Please note that during years the program is offered on-line, the first and final sessions are held in-person to facilitate relationship development at the beginning and closure at the end of the program. 

During the upcoming 2026-2027 year, the UW Capstone Certificate Program will meet fully in-person 3 days a month (Wednesday – Friday) in Madison, WI.
