\u00a02 Day Workshop<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

IPS has been at the forefront of research, development and delivery of cultural competency intervention programs CCIPs since 1998. This is based on Dr Westerman’s PhD research which\u00a0 focused on clearly defining the skills, abilities and aptitudes that predict cultural competence – defined BY Aboriginal people through focus group methodologies. This information has then be used to design unique training programs which are not cultural awareness as they are about behavioural change. They are defined as being psychoeducational rather than awareness based. These programs ensure that the skills component of the workshop are successfully implemented by employing dual theories of stages of behavioural change with the neuroscience of racism.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This training is best in the hands of psychologists – and best in the hands of Indigenous psychologists.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Dr Westerman stands as an industry leader in this complex application of training and intervention in a way that has demonstrated measurable impacts on her participants.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
