Hello from DRI Consulting!
Since 1992, DRI Consulting provides masters-level practica, and pre-and
post-doc internships for consulting psychologists.
As part of these professional experiences, we offer systematic
training in consulting-related topics that are highlighted in
APA Division 13, Society of
Consulting Psychologists Guidelines.
In addition, we have offered training in consulting psychology to
external colleagues for the past 10 years.
Our training topics focus within the three major domains of
consulting psychology: the individual, the group, and the organization/
system.
Part of DRI Consulting's mission is service to the discipline of consulting
psychology. In this vein, we are
making our training available to a wider audience.
The purpose of this e-mail is to invite you to participate in some or
all of our upcoming training sessions.
This group
provides transitioning consultants a mix of very hands-on didactics and case
consultation/supervision as a way to expand professional expertise.
Dr. Fennig will teach from the separate sections focused on the list of skills in the SCP Guidelines for
Training: Individual-Level, Group-Level and Organizational/Systemic-Level
Core Competencies.
Sessions
takes place the second Monday of the month from 3:30 p.m. - 5 p.m.
Central Time..
You can participate in the training by teleconference.
Each session is worth 1.5 CE's.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
from the Division about an additional training opportunity!
For the past several years, the Training & Development
Committee has been partnering with Dr. Harry Levinson on coordinating and
facilitating a mentoring teleconference with a group of six early career
consultants. Another successful round of calls has finished, thanks to the
efforts of Dr. Harry Levinson, Abby Jandro, Kerry Cronan, Brynn Freeman, and
the Training & Development Committee, who have all given significant time
and energy to coordinating and promoting this excellent opportunity.
Despite a longstanding commitment to the group, Dr. Harry Levinson
will be stepping down this year. On behalf of the former series’
participants and Division membership, I would like to thank Dr. Levinson for
sharing his wisdom with so many of us.
As a continuation of the mentoring that Dr. Levinson
generously provided, I'm pleased to announce that Dr. Arthur Freedman will
be serving as the next mentor for the series.
As a tribute to Dr. Levinson, the group will be titled, "The Harry
Levinson Discourses moderated by Arthur Freedman."
Dr. Freedman brings deep knowledge and experience in working with
groups and organizations that will be valuable for early career consultants.
I will be facilitating the upcoming series and would like to invite
you to participate. This year’s calls will take place on the second Thursday
of the month from 7 to 8:30 pm EDT, beginning in October.
Specifically, the calls will take place October 14th, November 11th,
December 9th, January 13th, February 10th, and March 10th.
I encourage early career consultants (with 1-5 years of
consulting experience) to take advantage of this development opportunity.
The group is limited to six participants with current consulting
cases who can commit to all calls, since these have been key success factors
in past series. The format of
the calls will be based on a case study approach in which one case will be
presented by a designated group member each month.
All participants are asked to submit a one-page client case summary
one month prior to their scheduled presentation to ensure we have "live"
cases. If you are interested in
participating or have any questions about the series, please contact me with
a brief description of your consulting experience at
sthornton@mail.widener.edu
by Friday, September 10th at 5pm EDT.
Looking forward to another successful series, Susan
