About this Event
Please note this is an all day training. Participants need to commit to the whole day!
Part 1 (9:30-12:00) Effective Communication
Part 2 (1:00-3:30) Getting Through Conflict
These two sessions are designed to help attendees improve their communication strategies in order to navigate more effectively through conflict. Through active learning, participants will understand their own personal communication and conflict management styles. This information will then be used to develop skills and strategies to improve relationships with clients, colleagues and supervisors.
A certificate of completion will be provided to all participants that complete the session. The certificate can be used to apply for CEUs for various disciples such as social work, peer certification and more.
Coffee, juice and light refreshments will be available starting at 9:00am. Lunch will be on your own. An afternoon snack break will also be provided.
