The CITP Training Programme 2008
Psychodrama On-going Training Groups
Training in the psychodrama method will assist those in leadership
roles to develop their abilities. They will be enlivened and challenged to expand
their creative edge and professional competency. Through a greater awareness of
their own behaviour and the development of leadership roles, a network of satisfying
relationships will be developed and sustained.
Psychodrama is primarily a group method.
Developing an appreciation of group dynamics is therefore fundamental in psychodrama training.
Specifically trainees learn to recognise and value the
sociometry which occurs in groups and work with this both as group member and leader.

Leadership and Facilitation Training (2008C)
Training in the Fundamentals of Group Work and Leadership
Many of us spend a considerable amount of our working
life in groups. Meetings, skills groups, support groups, discussion groups,
rap groups, casework presentations, handovers, meetings with relatives,
progress meetings, communication meetings and patient review meetings.
Many of you will also be aware of reluctance or ambivalence as well as a certain
amount of anxiety about groups in respect of theses meetings and groups.
More than likely this is a reflection of the experiences you have in these
groups - an experience in varying degrees of fragmentation, conflict,
disrespect, poor communication, lack of clarity, lack of tangible outcomes and poorly developed action plans.
Yet groups do develop in a patterned manner and in ways that
are recognisable and well accepted. We can make interventions that will minimise problematic functioning and offer leadership.
In this training course participants can expect to learn some
of the dysfunctional activities which plague groups, some of the
theories of groupwork behaviour and some specific interventions that minimise problematic group activities.
In a well-organised group
any member of the group can take functional leadership at
any time. Interventions that assist the work to proceed
can be made thoughtfully with an understanding of the dynamics and the wider systems at work.
This training course takes place over 5 days.
A certificate is given to trainees completing the course
which includes written and practical assignments.
The training is 'generic' and is suitable
for any type of group leadership situation. It is designed
to involve participants in reflecting on and using their own experience as a basis for learning.
The course will include:
-
planning sessions and courses
-
preparing for a group
-
beginning a group
-
facilitating interaction
-
responding to the process
-
closing a group
There will be a focus on:
-
group work theory
-
role theory
-
sociometry
-
communication in groups
-
leadership styles
There will be teaching and supervised practice.
There is an emphasis on developing ability in observing and understanding group behaviour,
understanding and managing stages of group development and making use of the Focal Conflict Model.
This is a valuable course for anyone who works with groups of people.
The principles of group dynamics will be covered and participants can expect
to develop their ability to understand how groups work and how to conduct them.
