MedAvante Rater Training is the first step to level set raters for quality control by centralized MedAvante expert trainers (CQC).

All other rater training programs do not provide the same level of thoroughness and depth as MedAvante Rater Training:

• MedAvante has the most thorough applied interviewing training of any commercial training program
• MedAvante has trained raters throughout the world
• Provides a unique combination of conceptual knowledge with intensive applied clinical skills training and testing
• Is the only rater training program that has been empirically validated to effectively train in both concepts and clinical skills

The MedAvante team of expert trainers is composed of research scientists and clinicians who are thought leaders in rater training and assessment.  Each of MedAvante's senior scientist has engaged in funded research examining improved assessment methodologies, has authored psychiatric scales and/or has led efforts to update current scales.
