We're planning to offer a 3-day course in the US and need to know how
much to charge for it.  The main people attending will be psychiatric
nurses and social workers etc: professionals who work with psychiatric
patients.  So what I need to know is WHAT IS THE TYPICAL PRICE RANGE
FOR SHORT COURSES THAT PSYCHIATRIC NURSES AND SOCIAL WORKERS ETC
ATTEND?  If you can find 3-day courses, that's great, but equally if
you find 1 and 2 day courses that's good to ... I can extrapolate from
those.  Another variable is whether the course is 'Open' (e.g. people
travel from where they work to a hotel in New York and pay $X per day
per head) or 'On Site' (i.e the tutor travels to a specific hospital,
charges $Y for the whole course and the hospital chooses who to put on
the course).  Both are of interest to me, but I guess 'Open' may be
easier to find.  Ours is quite a high level course (psychological
approaches to working with extreme behaviour) so anything of a similar
level will be of most interest.

Here is link to a nursing college offering post-graduate short
courses. The college is in Virginia and may be worth contacting for
information.
