## FAQs
What if I trained in Fluence’s Oregon (OR) program? Can I just attend your CO practicum? +
You have two options after having completed your OR practicum:
1. **Get your Oregon license and wait for portability:** If you get your OR license, you have to wait a year and then you can have your CO license - this is a CO requirement for license portability. This would be the most straightforward option for you - you would not need to do another practicum in CO.
2. If you'd like to practice in CO sooner than Jan 2026, you will have to complete the CO specific course, Natural Medicine Facilitation, in order to be eligible to attend one of our partner’s CO Psilocybin Practicum.
*Students who choose track (ii) please email us directly so we can provide you with a course enrollment link exclusively for Natural Medicine and Facilitation.*
Do I have to take Essentials of Psychedelic Therapy if I trained with another program? +
Probably not. Graduates from CIIS, Naropa, the pre-2023 MAPS MDMA program, or IPI ***do not*** need to take essentials. Graduates from Berkely, Vital, or other psychedelic therapy training programs are required to share their latest syllabus for review. Please email us directly with your syllabus at [info@fluencetraining.com](mailto:info@fluencetraining.com) for confirmation.
*The Professional Certificate is structured as an accelerated track - it is only 130 hours, taking into account that someone has an advanced degree that allows them to skip 20 hours of CO requirements by taking the program.*
Is the entire professional certificate online? +
The Fluence courses for this Certificate Program--Essentials of Psychedelic Therapy, Psilocybin Preparation and Integration, and Natural Medicine Facilitation--are online. After completing these courses you receive your Professional Certificate from Fluence. You can then apply for a training license from Colorado's Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA) and complete an in-person practicum held by one of our partners.

What is the difference between Psilocybin *Clinical* Facilitator and a Psilocybin Facilitator? +
The Fluence professional certificate in Psilocybin Facilitation prepares the trainee for two possible Colorado licenses: Natural Medicine Facilitation (non-clinical) and Natural Medicine *Clinical* Facilitation. Trainees must have, by the end of their practicum experience, an *active license in good standing* in a behavioral or medical health field in the state of Colorado in order to obtain a Natural Medicine *Clinical* Facilitator license.

• IPI
