Tracey,
"Training", especially in a still new movement, can be exciting and
challenging and risky for both the "trainers" and those seeking training.
It's not really "like" anything else. There are also folks who offer other
trainings in skills that can be of assistance to a Collaborative
practitioner.
But as far as doing actual Collaborative Trainings....
The IACP site offers the Standards for Collaborative Trainings and for
Trainers:
http://www.collaborativepractice.com/_t.asp?M=8
<http://www.collaborativepractice.com/_t.asp?M=8&MS=5&T=New-Ethics>
&MS=5&T=New-Ethics
It also offers a Trainers' Directory:
http://www.collaborativepractice.com/_t.asp?M=8
<http://www.collaborativepractice.com/_t.asp?M=8&MS=7&T=TrainersDir>
&MS=7&T=TrainersDir
and the following advice to consumers:
"The information compiled for this Trainers Directory is designed to help
you and your organization identify trainers and training groups who will
meet your training needs. The information is of necessity quite general and
we suggest that you contact each trainer or training group. A wide variety
of practice and training approaches are available that expand upon or modify
the lawyer-only or full interdisciplinary team model. When choosing a
trainer or training group, it is advisable to have a discussion, including,
but not limited to:
* The practice experience of each trainer
* The structure of their practice group
* Objectives and scope of the trainings offered
* The training philosophy and model or approaches which will be part
of the training
* References to contact
* Outlines to review
The IACP does not endorse any individual trainers or training groups and
does not regulate the delivery of training services. "
InJoy!
