These introduction sessions are not sequential. You only need attend one session.

FAQs:

What is the difference between the Introduction for health professionals & the 1 day workshop?

The main difference between the 2 workshops, apart from the duration, is that the 3 hour workshop for health professionals includes a case presentation, and there is less time for experiential work than in the full day workshop. The full day workshop gives you more time to explore different materials & directives, and you experience individual, pair and group work.

 

I'm not a health professional, but would like to attend the workshop for health professionals. Is that OK?

Yes. There is no set criteria for either workshop. The emphasis is really the main point of difference. The timing of the health professional workshop allows people to attend as part of their professional development through their employment.
