The Centre for Psychedelic and Consciousness Research focuses on how psychedelics affect behavior, cognition, brain function, and biological health markers. They have been at the forefront of demonstrating the safety and efficacy of psychedelics for mental disorders, expanding their focus into psilocybin research across multiple mental health conditions, including smoking cessation, major depressive disorder, and cancer-related anxiety.

Blossom’s read
Johns Hopkins is a highly credible, research-first name in psychedelics rather than a commercial training brand. Its strongest suit is evidence-based education rooted in a long-running research programme and a deep bench of faculty who helped restart modern psilocybin science. Best for people who want a sober academic overview, especially curious professionals and learners who care more about mechanism, ethics and clinical evidence than hands-on facilitation credentials.
Who Johns Hopkins University is for
Best suited to students, health professionals, researchers, and informed members of the public who want a rigorous grounding in psychedelic science. It looks less like practitioner skills training and more like an evidence-based academic introduction.
Prerequisites
No specific prerequisites were stated for the Coursera course in the sources reviewed. For the broader Johns Hopkins psychedelic research and any prospective clinical training pathways, the sources indicate an emphasis on clinicians, researchers, and advanced fellowship or internship development, but no entry conditions for this course were specified.
Accreditation & recognition
The reviewed sources describe a Johns Hopkins Coursera course that offers a shareable certificate, but they do not mention formal professional accreditation, CME, or CE credit for the psychedelic course itself. Johns Hopkins does note that its continuing education and Coursera offerings can produce certificates for completed courses, but that is not the same as licensure or medical accreditation.
Cost
The Coursera listing indicates the course is available via Coursera, with a free-audit model implied by the platform and a paid subscription option for certificates under Coursera’s normal structure. The course page also says it is 1 week to complete at about 10 hours total; no Johns Hopkins-specific tuition figure was stated in the sources reviewed.
What you walk away with
Learners walk away with a broad, evidence-based understanding of psychedelic history, clinical trials, neuroscience, risks, ethics, and future directions. The direct credential mentioned is a shareable Coursera certificate, alongside foundational knowledge rather than a clinical qualification.
