Each July, the National Center for Death Education (NCDE) hosts a summer institute on the campus of Mount Ida. This annual program is made up of a series of workshops focused on grief, loss and bereavement. Participants explore counseling and educational techniques that include building interpersonal skills and assessing individual needs. Through continued participation in NCDE programs, including the summer institute and completion of a scholarly project focused on one specific area, individuals can earn a Certificate in Thanatology.
