SUMMARY:EBSA Horizons: Emotional Based School Avoidance Online CPD course for Educational Psychologists
DESCRIPTION:Cost plus VAT. \nThe EBSA Horizon online course for Educational Psychologists\, seeks to continue to build on the shift in the narrative\, moving away from the language of school refusal\, and to present an alternative model of EBSA\, in which the child’s voice is at the heart of assessment and intervention\, and emphasis is placed on understanding EBSA in the context of interacting\, child\, home and school-based factors. \n– The course is in an eLearning format which can be taken at your own pace\, and used as a reference guide to come back to over time.

SUMMARY:Dan Hughes: The importance of relationship expectations in childhood – how they develop & how they change
DESCRIPTION:Cost plus VAT. \nA very special online opportunity to spend time learning directly from and with the wonderful Dan Hughes. This day is open to anyone working with and / or supporting children & young people – this includes parents & carers as well as professionals\, practitioners & volunteers. \nContent Summary: \nThe initial interactions with the important people in a child’s life\, cause the child to expect that similar interactions will occur in relationship to those people as well as people in general. \nWhen the child has been hurt in these early interactions\, the child’s brain quickly develops a bias toward protecting self through “fight\, flight\, or freeze” and often misses cues that this relationship willl create safety and opportunities for nurturing engagements. \nThese biases make it difficult to help the child to respond to and be influenced by caring and supportive interactions being provided by a new caregiver\, teacher\, or counsellor / therapist.  Routine frustrations and disappointments with these new adults are often experienced as being frightening\, harsh\, or even abusive. \nIn our efforts to assist these children in developing reciprocal positive relationships with others\, we need to keep in mind that the child’s response to us may be primarily determined by their expectations based on past abusive experiences. \nWe need to relate in ways that generate safety and an openness to new learning. \nWe need to perceive and respond to the child’s inner life rather than to the behaviours that are problems and symptoms secondary to trauma. \nWe need to discover who the child was before being traumatized\, who the child is underneath the traumatic symptoms. \nThese discoveries will help us to become engaged safely with the child and to invite him into relational experiences that generate new expectations of nurture\, comfort\, and joy. \nThis will be a rich\, fun and inspiring day with Dan that will include time for questions and discussion\, as well as the likelihood of some role play. Please note: Dan will be beaming in live from the East Coast of America – hence the timings of the workshop. We suggest you attend having already had lunch as there will only be two short breaks during the training in order to cover the equivalent of a full day’s content. \nAn uplifting\, informative and transformational day with an incredible trainer – not to be missed!

SUMMARY:Motivational Interviewing Skills Club for EPs (MISC)
DESCRIPTION:MI Skills Club (MISC) is a free community group for Educational Psychologists wishing to practise their Motivational Interviewing skills. \nIf you have already undertaken some training in Motivational Interviewing (at least half a day)*\, you are welcome to join our MI Skills Club (MISC)\, which is a free community group for Educational Psychologists wishing to practise their MI skills within a small and friendly group. \nBecause MI is a conversational style\, rather than a discrete skill\, it is not something that can be mastered by attending a one-off training session. While MI is a learnable approach\, it takes practice\, reflection and supervision to improve. Learning MI on your own is hard\, and receiving objective feedback and expert feedback are helpful in developing and maintaining competence in MI (Miller & Rollnick\, 2023). \nCathy Atkinson and Fi Coley\, who are both members of the Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT)\, are collaborating to build an MI Learning Community for EPs. MINT (2019) defines a learning community as a network of practitioners interested in the same topic\, and the community can serve as both a resource and a forum for developing practice. \nIn each 90-minute online session we will focus on one small aspect of MI (micro-skills practice) and use breakout rooms with small groups to practice skills and give /receive supportive feedback. \nThis event is open to Educational Psychologists\, Trainee Educational Psychologists\, and Assistant Psychologists. We are unable to accommodate aspiring EPs at this event. \n*If you are just starting out on your MI journey\, or you would like to refresh your skills\, you can join our one-day Introduction and Refresher training on Friday 27th September 2024

SUMMARY:EP Reach-Out Webinar - Beat the Traffic – targeting air quality to improve educational outcomes for children with Dr Aoibhe Kieran
