This five-course program offers a total of 22 CE units and a comprehensive look at Internet Addiction and Psychology of the Web, including special courses on Cybersex and Internet and Adolescents. Field leader Dr. Kimberly Young's 4 CE unit course Internet Addiction provides an in-depth exploration of how Internet Addiction develops and what can be done about it. Dr. Young's second course in this certificate program package is Cybersex Addiction & Internet Infidelity, which explores this critical topic in detail. Understanding fidelity and sexuality in the context of the digital age is crucial for treating couples in this day and age. The certificate program continues with a third course from Dr. Young, also for 4 CE units, on Internet and Adolescents. Parents, teachers and practitioners can benefit greatly from understanding digital natives' relationship to technology and space ownership therein. Young people carve out space for themselves on and with the mediums they grow up on – which for natives, means blogs and social networking sites. Dr. Ofer Zur and his digital native daughter, Azzia Zur, offer a 6 CE unit course on Psychology of the Internet & Online Gaming: Parent-child digital divide and Internet and online gaming use, abuse and addiction which covers the digital divide among generations, psychology of Internet use and the function of online gaming – which, surprisingly to some, has much to offer in terms of education. Finally, Dr. Rosen offers an inside look at Psychology of the iGeneration in his 4 CE course, shedding light on the psychology of young people online and how people of older generations can best relate to them. Put together, these five courses are a fantastic in-depth orientation to the digital age and its unique challenges of addiction and offerings of stimulation, networking and connection.
