2-day Courses

BRIEF courses are practical and designed to make it possible for participants to make use of the skills in their work the day after the course, whatever they might be doing on that day.

Our two day courses, although shorter and less intensive than the four day programme, cover all the main elements of the solution focused approach including:

  • Meeting the person
  • Identifying resources
  • Eliciting the best hopes for the work
  • Detailing a preferred future
  • Establishing what is already working
  • Evaluating progress with scales
  • Giving constructive feedback
  • Offering suggestions
  • Highlighting change

These will be covered in lectures, discussions, videotapes and exercises. By the end of the course each member should have a sufficient grounding to try out at least some of these techniques in their everyday work.

If the course is done with a colleague or if the participant works with others using the approach then for some it will provide a good enough basis for becoming a reasonably competent solution focused practitioner

There will be a complete set of course notes provided for each participant.

TRAINING FEEDBACK 2010
  • Thank you again for the very positive experience we had on Saturday.  I hope to do a session with my team members - using the material we went through.  It has made me feel much more positive. 
  • Thanks for the wonderful training. Have included some comments from the evaluation forms for you to read ‘Highly appreciated’ ‘It was a wonderful course and I got to learn so much knowledge stuff which we can use in our daily life.’ ‘A very big thank you for everything’ ‘This is an excellent course. Evan is a sensitive as well as a knowledgeable/experienced facilitator. It was a privilege to be part of such a diverse and interesting group of people’ ‘There are some really good techniques that can be used in all parts of life, not only caring. A follow up (if available) would be very interesting’ ‘Thank you’ ‘I really enjoyed myself and I felt I am getting my life back together’ ‘Great course, thank you’
  • Since the training I have been trying out solution focused therapy with patients, and have found it to be extremely positive and powerful. The training came at exactly the right time for me and I feel inspired. Am definitely planning on doing more training.
