CENTER for MOTIVATIONAL INTERVIEWING TRAINING and STAFF DEVELOPMENT Congratulations on
your interest in Motivational
Interviewing (MI)
skills training. You are doing so because perhaps
you already know MI
is a powerful method proven to be fully
compatible with various other approaches as a method that
helps people resolve ambivalence toward change through discovery of
intrapersonal motivation by placing complete responsibility for change
on the individual.
Clinical trials on use of Motivational Interviewing in all areas of adolescent and adult treatment abound with substantial outcomes for creating sustainable change in maladaptive behaviors far beyond compliance. Please select a program below to view details, dates and locations or Download and review recommended MI training paths
These programs are taught with Power Point Presentation, video examples, modeling by the instructor, and practice breakout activity. Participants will recognize that many of the techniques are part of their current practice. With that recognition, and the training they will be able to begin using the techniques with more effectiveness and some added fidelity to the model.
