This introductory course provides a meaningful overview of MI using The Monarch System’s unique approach which integrates MI with other impactful and evidence-based behaviour change practices such as coaching methods and key elements of behaviour change theories/applications. This 3-hour workshop is sponsored by Memorial University Newfoundland (MUN) and is restricted to students enrolled in the Entry-to-Practice Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) program at MUN. This is the first-half of our full-day workshop wherein students will learn applied MI techniques to use with your prospective patients in your day-to-day contacts. You will learn how to build motivation and transition that enhanced motivation into a strengthened and real commitment to behaviour changes. We will teach you different ways to use such elements as compelling questions, reflective listening, acknowledging, and recognizing readiness to change and change talk, all in service of your clients’ needs for long- term goal setting and commitment to change.
