The actual number of Saudi Arabian military members diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is unknown, and sociological research on the subject is crucial. Furthermore, clinical social workers and psychologists must get a better understanding of PTSD symptoms in veterans. The most recent study sought to identify what the most important factor was in increasing PTSD awareness among clinical social workers and psychologists, and to check whether there was a disparity in awareness between individuals who completed an abroad qualification and those who had not. Clinical social workers and psychologists in the health-care field were polled to see how much they knew about PTSD. Purposive and snowball sampling approaches were used to disseminate an online survey to N = 144 participants to meet the research objectives. The findings revealed a link between education, self- development, and organizational development and the amount of PTSD awareness among the study participants. There were no statistically significant changes in awareness levels based on whether the certification was obtained inside or outside Saudi Arabia. The results of this study revealed that the level of awareness among the study sample varied significantly
