 1) coding sessions for effective use of OARS

 2) ‘defusing discord’

 3) using OARS in a role play

 4) crafting complex reflections

For More Information:

The course consists of four components:

  • Prerequisite (1 hour): How do I Help my Clients Make Changes to Improve Their Health? An Introduction to Motivational Interviewing for CHWs. This prerequisite offers 1 hour of Texas DSHS-certified CHW CEUs.

  • Pre-Work (1.5 hours): Watch videos and answer questions to prepare for the live session on Zoom. Both the prerequisite and pre-work must be completed before attending the live session.

  • Live session (2 hours): This interactive Zoom session will allow participants will practice their skills and discuss how MI could work in their work.

  • Post-Work (.5 hour): Answer questions about what you learned and complete an evaluation.

After successfully completing all components of the course (prerequisite, pre-work, live session, and post-work - including the evaluation), learners may receive 4 hours of Texas DSHS-certified CHW CEUs in addition to the 1 hour they receive from the prerequisite.
