Training Standards In order to achieve these goals the EAGT seeks to upgrade the standard of Gestalt Therapy training in Europe. After several years of intensive research into European Gestalt Therapy training and practice, a number of common denominations have been worked out. The EAGT expects its members to meet high standards. At present minimum although comprehensive criteria for training requirements have been adopted in order to accommodate the wide diversity of social and cultural conditions in Eurpeans countries where Gestalt Therapy is being developed. The EAGT will continue to seek to improve these standards and will in the future be exploring the issue of a European register of Gestalt pracitioners. The EAGT has ratified a code of ethics for its membership. Activities In order to provide na opportunity fo European colleagues to meet and exchange ideas and experience, the EAGT hosts a European Gestalt Conference in a different country every three years. Elections for president and officers of the board are also held three yearly.
