2 Day Foundation Course: Solution Focused Practice

BRIEF was founded in 1989 and the following year held its inaugural conference at which Steve de Shazer and Insoo Kim Berg, the co-founders of solution focused brief therapy, presented their ideas for the first time in Britain. The demand for training and therapy has kept BRIEF busy and expanding ever since.BRIEF is where Solution Focused Brief Therapy started in Britain. Evan George, Chris Iveson and Harvey Ratner were working in an NHS clinic when they heard about the Brief Family Therapy Centre in Milwaukee. The Milwaukee group were just beginning to publish their ideas and BRIEF arose from the successful attempt to develop these ideas within the British context. BRIEF is now Europe's largest provider of Solution Focused training with over 4000 professionals from the NHS, local authorities, education and private sector undertaking courses each year.Since the early days of Solution Focused practice BRIEF has become aware of the wider potential of the approach, developing applications in the fields of coaching, leadership, conflict resolution and team building. These developments have taken BRIEF out of the fields of health, education and social care into the corporate sector where managers and leaders are becoming increasingly clear about its transformative potential.

<H2>SF PRACTICE - 2-DAY FOUNDATION PROGRAMME<BR></H2>
<P>BRIEF's 2-day Foundation Programme in Solution Focused Practice is just about enough to kick of your future as a Solution Focused Practitioner. It will certainly leave with a good understanding of the basic Solution Focused principles and practices and a set of skills ready for immediate use.</P>
<P>Our courses are very responsive to each group of participants so no course is the same. However, they will all cover the following:</P>
<OL>
<LI>Establishing the client’s hoped-for outcome</LI>
<LI>How to elicit a description of the client's hoped-for future</LI>
<LI>Taking a new look at the past to support the hoped-for future</LI>
<LI>Using Solution Focused scales to connect past, present and possible future</LI>
<LI>Unearthing those resources likely to be useful in the client’s future life</LI>
<LI>Exploring progress in follow-up sessions</LI>
<LI>Treating every session, including the first, as possibly the last</LI>
</OL>
<P>You will also be taught how to apply these skills within your everyday working life taking into account such crucial factors as safety and other statutory and organizational obligations and duties.</P>
<P>What makes all this happen is the very high level of participation on the course. Because solution focused interviewing is like a craft it can only be understood through practice. Over the four days you will spend hours in pairs and small groups doing Solution Focused interviewing with each other. It is this which makes it almost impossible for you not to be in some way profoundly touched by the experience. It also means that you will know exactly what your clients are likely to experience when you get back to work. </P>
