MI Training Information

Training

These pages include information on how to receive training in Motivational Interviewing from members of the Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT), an international group of individuals who have participated in Dr. Miller and Rollnick's Training of Trainers workshops. MINT trainers remain updated in recent developments through a listserve and by attending annual meetings. The trainer list is currently sorted by geographical location. In the future, we hope to provide this list based upon specialty area as well. If you are interested in training people in MI, we invite you to consider participating in a MI Training for New Trainers event (TNT), offered one to three times per year by Drs. Miller & Rollnick.

Disclaimer:

The Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT) is an international collective of trainers sharing an interest in improving the qualty and effectiveness of counseling and consultations given to clients about behavior change. MINT members are enrolled through participating in a formal training of trainers program and share an active private email listserv through which they consult with one another in order to improve the quality of their workshops and consultations.

Most MINT trainers share in the belief that ongoing on-site consultation is the best method to facilitate improvement in the practice of motivational interviewing and brief behavior consultations, and most MINT training is provided through private contracts of this nature. However, we recognize that off-site introductory and advanced workshops and coursework provide another useful forum for improving practice, and that, for many individuals, these represent an important source of learning. For these reasons, on this page we list trainings and conference presentations offered by MINT trainers that are open for registration to counseling and health professionals. The MINT does not "endorse" these trainings. We expect these these trainings to be high in quality, but have no current mechanism to monitor or evaluate the workshops or the trainers who provide them. So we offer here descriptive information to help website visitors determine if the offerings are likely to meet their needs and interests.

What might you expect out of different lengths and types of training?

Evaluation of training:

Although we have no means to formally evaluate workshops offered by MINT members at present, we remain interested in promoting quality training and welcome the feedback of any participants who have attended a training hosted by a MINT member. If you have comments on a training that you attended, please feel free to email Dr. Stephen Rollnick by clicking on this link
