Description:

Deepen IPS Practice.

This 3-day in-perosn Advanced IPS Training supports participants to take their IPS practice a step further, play out the principles and tasks using real-life scenarios, heighten self-reflection, enhance ways of building mutual connections, and sustain the practice. Advanced Trainings are for anyone who has completed a Core Training.

Learn the Art of Co-Reflection.

Co-reflection is a vital practice where people regularly come together to reflect on their relationships using the IPS framework. Here is an opportunity to examine relationships, look at assumptions, and sustain the tasks and principles. IPS Core Training gets you started with Co-Reflection. Advanced IPS Training helps you master it.

Explore Crisis as an Opportunity.

Traditionally, crisis in mental health has been viewed as something undesirable or harmful, and risk assessment has led to fear-based responses that keep people stuck. In the Advanced Training, we focus on using crisis instead as an opportunity to connect, maintain mutuality, and create a culture of healing.

Expectations:

This will be a highly interactive learning environment with constant engagement. Participants are expected to do what they need to remain present and engaged throughout the training.

Schedule:

Training is scheduled for Wednesday April 30th - Friday May 2nd, 2025. Each session will occur from 9:00 AM - 4:30PM each day.


Participants must attend all days. We will take two short breaks and an hour lunch each day.


Cost:

This training is generously sponsored by Vermont's Peer Workforce Development Initiative , however, there is a $80 fee per participant for Advanced IPS Materials (a book).You will recieve your book on the first day of the training.
