Traditional MI Trainings: introducing the concepts
Awareness-building (3-6 hours): The awareness building training focuses on basic MI concepts. Participants learn some key MI vocabulary and basic building blocks of MI. This training focuses on the use of the guiding and empathetic style that is fundamental to MI, but can include brief practice of one MI skill.
Skills-based (12-32 hours): The skills-based training is a 2 or 3-day training that provides participants with a broad foundation in the concepts and skills of MI. These trainings follow Miller and Moyer's 8 Learning Tasks (2006). The multi-day format allows participants to explore many MI concepts in depth including the MI spirit, the four processes of MI and various types of motivations. Participants are given ample time for guided practice of MI skills during the class through real play, case studies and demonstrations. Typically the two or three days of training are separated by one week, allowing participants to practice the skills in real world settings and come back with informed questions and learning goals.
