The CAGS Program extends over two summer residencies at the EGS campus in Saas-Fee, Switzerland and includes the Intensive Master Courses IMC-1 (first year) and IMC-2 (second year), complemented by four field projects which should be completed under the guidance of a faculty advisor during the time between the two summer schools. The two summer modules IMC-1 and IMC-2 are offered in an intensive format by Paolo J. Knill and by Stephen K. Levine, Dean of the Doctoral Program in Expressive Arts, together with other master teachers who have made important contributions to the development of Intermodal Expressive Arts Therapy.

There are three options for participation in the CAGS program:

• towards a certificate as an Expressive Arts Trainer CAGS
• towards a qualification for the Ph.D. Program in Expressive Arts, for which the CAGS certificate is a prerequisite
• as a Continuing Education Project

For the CAGS certificate, all seminars of the modules IMC-1 and IMC-2 must be taken and passed with a satisfactory evaluation, and all four field projects must be completed. As a Continuing Education project, the two summer modules IMC-1 and IMC-2 (without field projects) can be taken as a package with a special tuition rate.
