2-day EFFT Caregiver Workshop Facilitation

Training guidelines and requirements for the delivery of the two-day general mental health / eating disorders caregiver workshop


In an effort to ensure fidelity and quality of the delivery of the two-day caregiver workshop for general mental health, the following standards have been developed:


Pre-delivery:


Part 1:


·    A minimum of 4 days of EFFT training facilitated by a Certified EFFT Trainer (must include a Core EFFT training)


·    Observation of a 2-day Caregiver Workshop facilitated by a Certified Caregiver Workshop Facilitator (Optional)


Part 2 (in this order):


a) Complete 1:1 or small-group workshop-specific didactic and experiential training

·      In person or video-meeting with an IIEFFT Certified Workshop Supervisor (list of supervisors below). 


b) Complete all required supervision hours

·      Minimum of 8 hours of individual supervision 

·      Minimum of 12 hours of group (maximum 6 participants) supervision

*Please note the above hours are the minimum required and many supervisees require 16+ hours before running their first workshop. This will be decided based on prior training and experience and is determined by you and your supervisor.


c) Completion of paper/pencil tasks:        

·    Emotion Coaching Script-builder      

·    Caregiver Emotion Coaching Fluency-Builder

·    Clinician Emotion Coaching Fluency-Builder  

·    Therapeutic Apology Worksheet (3 worksheets)

·    Clinician Traps Scale         

This will include feedback and revisions from your supervisor.


PLEASE NOTE: 

·    Caregiver workshop should only include caregiver block chair-work if run by a certified EFFT Therapist or Advanced therapist with experience/comfort with the intervention

·    If the lead facilitator is not permitted to practice psychotherapy by their employer or regulatory body then must have a psychotherapist as co-facilitator in order to include the Therapeutic Apologies section of the workshop


Post-delivery: 


·     Complete a minimum of 1 hour of supervision after facilitation of your first caregiver workshop


·     Email IIEFFT Board to submit application and supporting documents and pay $150 USD administration fee (payable online below)


______________________________________________________________________________________________________

Ongoing certification process:


Re-certification occurs every 2 years. The next update and re-certification cycle is scheduled for Spring 2025. 

*If you certified prior to the year of the update you are automatically required to attend the next update.


At the time of re-certification, certified caregiver workshop facilitators will be required to:

·     Have run a minimum of 1 full (12 hours or more) caregiver workshop per year.

·     Attend a 90-minute training update which will cost $50

·     Submit a re-certification document to the IIEFFT (document to follow in 2025)
