  • Monarch Level 2 Advanced Workshop on Motivational Interviewing & Coaching Tools for Healthcare Professionals ~ WECHC ~ October 13 & 20 2023 {via Zoom}

    13th Oct 2023 9:00:am – 13th Oct 2023 12:00:pm

    This advanced workshop builds on our Introductory MI workshop. This workshop is sponsored by the Windsor Essex Community Health Centre and is open to any health care professional living in Ontario.  Registration information is available at this link. Participants need to have completed Monarch's Level 1 workshop or equivalent (click here to view the MI skills covered in our Level 1 course) and must attend both days, Friday October 13th and Friday October 20th, 9:00-12:00 both days, to be eligible for a certificate of course completion from the Monarch System. Specifically, the Monarch System’s Level 2 offering is designed to help health practitioners work with patients who are overwhelmed, stuck behaviourally, and/or seem highly resistant to change. Many clients are trapped in a view that they cannot change their behaviours, and this workshop focuses on helping free clients from this experience in service of fostering meaningful health-related behaviour changes. The workshop includes amplified MI video examples; along with additional participant MI practice; and feedback opportunities to support the immediate integration of the new advanced tools within participants’ professional and personal lives.

  • Monarch Level 3 Progressive Workshop on Motivational Interviewing & Coaching Tools for Healthcare Professionals ~ WECHC ~ Jan 26 & Feb 2, 2024 {via Zoom}

    26th Jan 2024 9:00:am – 26th Jan 2024 12:00:pm

    Similar to the previous levels of training, the Level 3 Progressive training builds from Monarch's previous offerings and is both interactive and “hands-on”. The event is sponsored by the Windsor Essex Community Health Centre and is open to health professionals who have completed Monarch's Level 1 and Level 2 workshop trainings or equivalent (a reminder of our level 1 and 2 skills' taught is available here). This set of workshops is offered virtually, via Zoom, for 3 hours each day on 26 January and 2 February, 2024, from 9:00-12:00 each day; to be eligible for a Level 3 course completion certificate, participants must attend both days. The 'progressive' nature of the workshop is such that we want to design the event around participants' experiences using MI and your needs re enhancing, honing, and cementing your MI knowledge and practical skills in service of best impacts on your clients/patients. To that end, prior to the workshop dates, registered participants will be asked to complete a set of questions from a Survey Monkey link. For example, we want to know what MI tools you have used most frequently; what issues have arisen in using MI with your clients; and what would make a level 3 MI workshop useful to you. Consistent with our MI workshops, there will be lots of MI demonstrations; opportunities to practice previously learned and new MI skills in partnerships and/or small groups; and to participate in large group discussions and question-answering sessions.
