About this course
Ready to take your Motivational Interviewing (MI) skills to the next level? Want to learn to evaluate motivational conversations and frame effective coaching feedback? Looking to integrate high yield observation and coaching into your communities of practice?
This fast-paced and highly interactive virtual workshop will introduce you to applying both the Motivational Interviewing Treatment Integrity (MITI) and Motivational Interviewing Competency Assessment (MICA) coding and coaching instruments to support your own and others’ MI skill development. The MITI helps identify utterances or behaviors inside the conversation, and the MICA focuses more on conversation flow. For evaluating your own and others’ conversations, as well as forming feedback, this course will help you use both instruments—and allow you to compare their relative usefulness for different needs.
We will meet 5 Fridays beginning 22 January 2021.
