Training

 This course is designed for lay and professional mental health and spiritual  care providers, frontline workers, and all interested participants. It seeks to equip participants with skills, knowledge, and attitude to facilitate a counseling session in such a way that clients feel understood, can talk about  their problems, and help them explore ways to live more effectively. 

The course participant will learn communication skills, counseling principles, and skills  that will enable them to be more effective in helping clients achieve their preferred solutions to their problems. Based on the Skilled-Helper Model developed by Gerald  Egan, the course introduces you to the most effective problem-solving and management  approach. 

 The program seeks to equip educators, teachers, school governing bodies, learners in  schools or learning environments, parents, and frontline workers to be trauma-informed and competent. Learners are exposed to violence, bullying, and other forms of traumatic experiences on a daily basis. Trauma-informed and competent educators or parents will not only have the responsibility to  prevent trauma, but also enhance the process of recovery and healing for learners after a traumatic experience. This will lead to a widespread positive effect on learners’  academic outcomes and relationships with peers, teachers, and other support systems.
