You learn the most by practicing and doing it yourself. Therefore, make the workshop extra instructive by choosing a variant with a training actor. A training actor takes the role of your patient so you can practice difficult conversation situations in a safe environment. Click on 'Practice with a training actor' in the tabs for more information.
Time investment & homework.
The meetings take place in the live online classroom and last 2 hours. Different dates and times are scheduled. You follow the live online session in a group of 5 to 10 fellow students and a regular trainer. We expect you to actively participate during the session and encourage you to contribute your own cases. Select your preferred date and register.
To prepare for the live online sessions, some self-study is expected from you, count on about 1 hour per live online session.
You learn the most by practicing and doing it yourself. Make the training extra instructive by choosing a variant with a training actor. A training actor puts himself in the role of your client or patient so you can practice difficult conversation situations in a safe environment.
Ben de Winter is a training actor and has also worked for years as a psychiatric nurse in the mental healthcare sector. He therefore knows better than anyone what you as a doctor or clinician have to deal with.
During a role play, you practice with conversation situations that you find difficult. This may sound exciting, but Ben provides a safe and pleasant atmosphere in which you feel comfortable to practice. After the role-play there is an interview in which Ben gives relevant feedback based on his experience and expertise. He is able to empathize with the different roles, allowing him to give feedback from both the patient/client position and the care provider position.
Depression, personality disorder, psychosis, manic disinhibition or aggression? Interpreting psychopathological behavior is right up Ben's alley. Ben can also be called upon for other conversational situations. For example, guiding patients and clients online requires different skills. How do you respond to someone who is sad during a video call, how do you convey bad news or how do you react to aggression? In short, all difficult conversation situations can be practiced in a role play!

Register
After you purchase the course you will receive a confirmation email and an email with the login instructions for the live online (LOL) learning environment. In the learning environment all course material is available to which you will have unlimited access immediately. We also ask you to sign up for a test session with one of our trainers, in which you will be prepared for the first real live online session. During this test session, we will make sure that all the technology is working properly and that you are familiar with the live online classroom so you can participate in the first lesson without worry. This course will start when a minimum of 5 students have registered. If the course cannot start due to insufficient enrollment we will inform you a.s.a.p. and refund the purchase price within 30 days after cancellation.
Incompany
We can organize all our trainings and workshops as an in-company course. We tailor the training as much as possible to the practice and learning needs. By means of an online intake questionnaire we map out your needs and knowledge as accurately as possible, so that we can offer you a tailor-made training.
In addition, we can also provide broader guidance on the transition from offline to online communications through consulting, helping to develop a toolbox, or tailored guidance for professionals. And so there are many more options. We are happy to think along with you.
It is possible to participate in our training on the basis of open registration (price per participant). For an in-company training a price per group applies. For the group price we charge 8 times the price per participant. For this amount, 15 people can participate in the group training. If, for organizational reasons, it is desirable to increase the group size, this can be done in consultation. In that case, separate price agreements are made.
