Step 2 Motivational Interviewing
~~This 2 day non-residential course in Birmingham replaces our intermediate course and is for people who have already undertaken some introductory study of motivational interviewing and want to refresh and extend their skills. It is step 2 of our 3 step programme towards the Advanced Certificate.It is not intended for complete beginners and prospective participants will be expected to show evidence of of attendance at a foundation course of at least 2 days duration before acceptance on the course. This training does not need to have been one of our own courses provided it covered similar material and included coached practice opportunities. For those who wish to study for the advanced certificate, completion of step 2 is a requirement. .
The course will provide an opportunity for participants to
re-examine the key concepts of ambivalence, change talk and resistance
explore development of core skills applied within the processes of Engagement, Focussing, Evoking and Planning
practice under supervision and receive feedback on their developing skills
discuss tricky situations and cases from their own workplace (confidentiality rules apply)
