“I have already started to think about how to apply my new skills and knowledge to my work- making adjustments where necessary for our client group.”
May brought me so many wonderful folks. Especially the folks who attended Motivational Interviewing or as I like to call it, ‘inspiring change behaviour.’ After all, that’s what it is all about. This course was commissioned by Expert Citizens Insight Academy from Stoke on Trent. Such an asset to the city and to ongoing excellent practice.
Feedback from the learners certainly perked up my day and it was wonderful to see so many professionals from across Stoke on Trent, together in one room, sharing their expertise and making new professional chums. Motivation was sky high! Plus, I got to meet some old friends!
Here is what the learners had to say:
“Brilliant!”
“Amazing sessions. Will definitely use the skills learned at work.”
“I will be utilising these skills when working with my staff to support them to develop skills and experience.”
“This workshop has helped me to put my knowledge of motivational interviewing into practice.”
“I feel more confident that I could use this successfully with people now. Through conversations with clients and being able for them to recognise their own changes and successes.”
“I feel I do parts of motivational interviewing in my job but I feel I could add more!”
“As a smoking cessation coach i will be using this to help my clients.”
“To help patients become intrinsically motivated to make changes to various aspects of their lifestyles.”
“Nice refresher on an excellent course.”
“This development will help me contribute more strategically and efficiently in my role.”
“I intend to apply the skills I have learned in my every day practice, whilst completing adult social care reviews and assessments. This training has been extremely helpful. Thankyou.”
“I will start using the knowledge and skills in my work with clients straight away.”
“100% will be used in my work!”
“Really good method of delivering the course, theory but lots of practice and active parts of the day.”
