Microdosing Institute

Netherlands-based global education, research, and community platform founded in 2017 by Hein Pijnnaken in Brielle, initially as Microdosing.nl and relaunched internationally as Microdosing Institute in 2020, positioned as Europe's first microdosing community with over 6,000 members. Microdosing Institute offers a 6-Week Microdosing Immersion, a Microdosing Facilitator Program, and academic research facilitation, and co-founded the International Microdosing Association alongside James Fadiman.

Blossom’s read

Microdosing Institute is a Netherlands-based microdosing education platform with a strong community and research orientation, rather than a conventional accredited school. It is best for curious adults and practitioners who want structured, non-clinical guidance on microdosing, plus a pathway into facilitation, but it does not offer government-recognised licensure or academic credit. Its lineage is closely tied to Hein Pijnnaken, Jakobien van der Weijden, and advisory influence from James Fadiman, which gives it a notable place in the European microdosing scene.

Who is Microdosing Institute for?

Best for self-directed learners, coaches, therapists, wellness workers, and other people who want to understand microdosing for personal growth or non-clinical support work. The facilitator track is especially aimed at people who already have some exposure to the 6-Week Microdosing Immersion and want to guide others.

What do you need before you start?

The 6-Week Microdosing Immersion is open to individuals and professionals worldwide who have legal access to psilocybin-containing medicines such as mushrooms or truffles. The Microdosing Facilitator Program builds on that immersion and is open to people who have shown commitment and potential through participation in the 6-Week Microdosing Immersion; no licence or prior formal education is required, but the programme is designed for aspiring wellness and mental health workers, coaches, therapists, and similar practitioners.

Is Microdosing Institute accredited?

Microdosing Institute does not grant a government-recognised licence, certificate, or academic credit. Graduates receive a certification of completion from Microdosing Institute and may market themselves as a Microdosing Institute Certified Facilitator, but this is not externally accredited.

How much does it cost?

The 6-Week Microdosing Immersion is listed at €599 including VAT, with optional 1:1 coaching available at extra cost. The 8-month Microdosing Facilitator Program is listed at €4,500 excluding VAT, with payment plans available and discounts for those who pay in full.

What do you walk away with?

Learners in the immersion gain foundational knowledge, practical peer support, and exposure to microdosing protocols, integration, and self-development. Facilitator-program graduates leave with a certification of completion, a framework for non-clinical microdosing support, practicum experience, ethical and legal awareness, and a professional network, but not a regulated licence.
