Conclusions: The educational program effectively enhanced healthcare providers' knowledge and attitudes regarding integrating genetic testing into psychiatric practice. Substantial improvements between pre- and posttest scores indicate increased proficiency in addressing challenges related to genetic testing. The findings reveal a significant knowledge gap, as many participants lacked prior education on genetic testing during their undergraduate studies. This underscores the need for ongoing training and support. Encouraging collaboration between genetic specialists and psychiatric practitioners and ensuring adequate resources are essential for successfully implementing genetic testing in routine psychiatric care.
