Advanced

This is not a lecture-style training. This is a full day of group practice, which serves as an alternative to very expensive individual coaching. In a group format, participants can give and receive feedback on various practice sessions. The goals for the day include:

1. Discover one's own voice and style within the practice of MI (after all, there is certainly more than one correct way to use MI skills)

2. Sharpen one's own skills and determine future areas of improvement

A 16-hour, 4-part interactive online series for skilled Motivational Interviewing (MI) practitioners interested in learning engaging and effective approaches to sharing and training others in MI.

This training series is capped at 10 learners.

February 2025 MI Champions Series:

MI: Advancing the Practice

In this advanced, intensive 3-day training, proficiency in understanding Motivational Interviewing (MI) is assumed as a starting point so applicants must already have substantial familiarity and experience with Motivational Interviewing. The focus is on training and coaching skills toward teaching MI and to facilitate the learning of MI by others. This training does not focus on acquisition of proficiency in the clinical skills themselves.

During this three day workshop, participants will:

•Discuss ways to teach, coach this material to others.
