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 27 January and 3 February, 2025, from 9:00-12:00 each day; to be eligible for a Level 3 course completion certificate, participants must attend both days and participate fully in all aspects of the workshop. 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 questionnaire (link to be provided by mid December 2024). 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. Registration information is available at this link. For more information about our company, our events, resources, and workshops please visit our Monarch website https://monarchsystem.com
