This year's International Trainer Seminar will take place in Wiesbaden, Germany, on 22-26 August at the the Prof.-Peseschkian-Foundation, Kaiser-Friedrich-Therme, Langgasse 38-40.
The International Trainer Seminar is addressed to trainers for Positive Psychotherapy and persons who are on their way to become a trainer. At least, they need to have successfully completed a Master Training in Positive Psychotherapy. The trainers are the most important resource and multipliers for the development of Positive Psychotherapy worldwide. Therefore, they need an exclusive forum to learn from each other, to train their competencies and to have the possibility for transcultural communication. This is the aim for the ITS 2012.
An official invitation will be sent to all trainers and trainers in education soon, as well as a registration form.
