The C.G. Jung Institute offers a structured continuing education program that provides intensive analytic training to qualified mental health professionals. The program leads to certification as a Jungian analyst.

The Analyst Training Program integrates theory and practice through seminars based on the Collected Works of C.G. Jung, participation in case colloquia, and individual case supervision. Certification as an analyst is determined by the Certifying Board after satisfactory completion of all requirements of the program. Certified Jungian analysts who have completed this program are elected to membership in the C.G. Jung Institute of Los Angeles, at which time they become members of the International Association for Analytical Psychology (IAAP) and are awarded a Diploma in Analytical Psychology.

Continuing education units for candidates who are licensed as clinical psychologists, marriage and family therapists, clinical social workers, and nurses are available for each course offering in the program.
