PESSO BOYDEN PRACTITIONER TRAINING IN UK STARTING 2010

An opportunity to work with two of the most experienced and gifted trainers in the field of body-mind psychotherapy

• Training consists of 4 training modules over each of three years; each module lasts 3 days, i.e., 12 days per year.
• Year 1 is a Foundation year, after which participants elect whether to continue for two further years as above: 12 days per year organised in four 3-day modules each year, making a total 36 days over the 3 years.
• For participants who complete the Foundation year only, the 3 modules provide an introduction to and basic grounding in PBSP principles.
• Participants who complete all 3 years and successfully complete a formal evaluation are confirmed by Al Pesso and Lowijs Perquin as PBSP practitioners (permitted to use PBSP in their work.
• Cost for training in the Foundation year is £1,750 per participant. " Cost for training in years 2 and 3 is between £1,750 and £2,000 per participant each year, depending upon numbers electing to remain in the training group.
• Venue costs: Day-delegate payment of £45 per day for each participant (paid directly to the hotel at the time of each training module), covers refreshments at breaks; lunches; use of a comfortable training room (i.e. £540 per participant per year at present costs in addition to the training fees above).

• Training requirements beyond the scheduled training days
• Knowledge and understanding of PBSP theory and principles is underpinned by study of relevant prescribed literature. (This is not assessed though written assignments but through ongoing assessment of participants' practical understanding of PBSP theory demonstrated in the way they work with the approach.)
• Participants apply and deepen mastery of the practical skills of PBSP through peer Intervision, scheduled with fellow group members between training modules.
• As participants begin to practice PBSP skills more fully in the second half of their 3 years they are expected to arrange supervision for their PBSP practice.

Summary of award gained through PBSP Training

There are several levels of award through different levels of achievement:

1. Completion of Foundation training year: participants receive a certificate of attendance for an Introduction to PBSP Theory and Practice

2. Completion of all three years of training: participants who successfully complete an end-of-training practical assessment are confirmed as PBSP practitioners and permitted to use PBSP in their work. (N.B. If their work prior to training is as a psychotherapist, PBSP training augments and complements this. If their work prior to training is as a business coach or management development specialist, PBSP training deepens and enhances practice - it does not provide a therapeutic qualification.)

3. Successful completion of (2) above - whether as a therapist or a business coach - entitles practitioners to submit a film of themselves leading a structure. If the work achieves the appropriate standard set by the PBSP International Assessment Board (Al Pesso, Diane Boyden-Pesso and Lowijs Perquin) the practitioner achieves Certification as a Pesso-Boyden Practitioner within the field in which they practice.
