Compass Pathways Announces U.S Grant Program for the Creation of Post-Approval COMP360 Provider Training
14.4.2026 12:30:00 CEST | Business Wire | Press Release
Compass Pathways plc (Nasdaq: CMPS), a biotechnology company dedicated to accelerating patient access to evidence-based innovation in mental health, announced today an invitation for U.S. based organizations to apply for a grant to create training content for healthcare providers to deliver investigational COMP360 psilocybin treatment, if approved. Many high-quality training organizations already exist and have trained thousands of HCPs in core and psilocybin-specific psychedelic care. This grant program was established to support the development of high-quality training content, including a COMP360-specific module, with the aim of ensuring HCPs are well-prepared to care for patients receiving COMP360 following the expected commercial launch. Organizations who apply for these grants should have the capabilities to develop and deliver psychedelic treatment training content to ensure the highest standards of care delivery and consistent patient experience.
Through the grant program, Compass expects to award up to three organizations grants to support the development of foundational psychedelic and COMP360-specific training. Applications will be accepted from April 14 through May 14, 2026. Interested organizations can apply here: training-grants.compasspathways.com.
“As we prepare for the potential commercial launch of COMP360 for treatment-resistant depression, our priority is ensuring that healthcare providers are trained, confident, and ready to deliver COMP360 treatment responsibly where eligible patients may receive care,” said Dr. Steve Levine, Chief Patient Officer at Compass Pathways. “Through this grant program, we look forward to collaborating with credible and experienced training organizations to develop high quality content to ensure multidisciplinary teams of providers are ready to deliver psilocybin treatment at scale, if approved. This initiative represents an important step to making training for COMP360 broadly available and supporting operational readiness ahead of a U.S. launch.”
