For those seeking certification by the American Board of Examiners in Psychodrama, Sociometry and Group Psychotherapy and/or by the North American Drama Therapy Association, all training hours can be applied toward certification according to the standards and procedures of the two certifying bodies. If you live in a country in which there is a different certifying body, check with them to see if they have a reciprocal agreement with these boards. Motivational Arts Unlimited is developing a Certificate Program to assist students in tracking their training hours and experiences.
Professionals in many fields (counseling, therapy, education, law, business management, etc.) may also be interested in training apart from certification.
When workshops are sponsored by an organization, training institute, school, etc., fees are on a contract basis for half-day, full-day, and multiple-day sessions. Several workshop offerings can easily be combined into multiple-day programs.

The training is then designed to fit these goals and objectives.

The goals of these trainings depend on whether the participants are managers and/or staff from one or several different facilities. They can be further adapted to serve staff who work in a specific service area, e.g. reception. I offer free consultation (in person, when feasible, otherwise, by SKYPE) to the organizer(s) of the trainings to clarify the parameters and set specific goals.

The examples below provide a range of topic areas. Several may be combined into one training, as was the case for the training conducted for the Jari Menari Spa staff in Bali.

(Please see ‘Testimonial’ from the General Manager of Jari Menari at the end of this document.)

Logistics for Workshops: These trainings can be offered as a half-day workshop (3-4 hours), a full-day workshop (6-7 hours), or over multiple days, with all or different groups participating at different times. Space needs include having a workshop room with movable chairs and one that is large enough to accommodate the number of people involved. A whiteboard or easel with newsprint and appropriate colored markers areis also needed.
