ETHOS Training Sessions
Motivational Interviewing (MI) / Stages of Change (SOC)
Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a communication method intended to move the person toward change while focusing on exploring and resolving ambivalence as a key to eliciting that change. Within MI, change arises through its relevance to the person’s own values and concerns (Miller and Rollnick, 2002).
The Stages of Change (SOC) Model, also known as the Transtheoretical Model of Change (TMC), is an innovative approach to motivational issues facing job seekers, with the potential to move people along the “Stages of Change” to employment. SOC has been used extensively in the addictions field, where emotion, cognition and behaviour are crucial factors, and is now showing promise within the employment field, as well (see www.ofe.ca/research).
ETHOS recognizes innovation and promotes professional development throughout the employment field. Three workshops, Level I Motivational Interviewing, Level II Motivational Interviewing, and Workshop Facilitator Training for MI will be offered this November on Vancouver Island.
