C. Lab in emotional awareness training 1
This experiential lab class will involve interactive and interpersonal activities aimed to develop each participants’ EI.

Strategies will be developed that will enable each participant to more effectively gauge and use his or her emotions in professional interventions.
D. EI Assessment methods for individuals and environments
This class will involve the use of EI assessment tools. Participants will be administered the MSCEIT and other EI assessments (prior to the class) and use the results to better understand their own EI. There will be a review and discussion of assessment principles in general and EI assessment in particular. Participants will become familiar with the major EI assessment methods and learn to incorporate an emotional lens to their assessment and evaluation procedures when working with individual, groups and systems. [Note: This workshop does not certify participants in for formal administration of the MSCEIT, EQi or ECI as formal training of these instruments must be obtained through the respective authors/publishers].
E. EI Strategies (General & discipline-specific)
This class covers general principles and strategies of using EI-based interventions in professional settings. Participants, through smaller group formats, will learn and develop specific strategies applicable to their own type of setting (educational, clinical, organizational). Case studies will be used and participants will analyze scenarios, apply assessment and strategies learned from previous classes.
F. Lab in emotional awareness training 2
This class will continue the interpersonal and group development through interactive activities focused on the experience of emotional processes.
G. Developing and implementing an EI Intervention plan
Participants will work with instructors individually and in small groups to each develop a specific intervention plan for their discipline (education, clinical, or consultation -organizational). Plans will be aimed at facilitating positive changes using EI principles and will be based on empirically grounded methods.
Approximately 6 hours of time are included in the level II -Advanced Certification program outside of the workshop. (1-2 hours for pre-workshop assessments and 3 – 4 hours are for post-workshop projects and supervision)
