The 2021 FIT Intensive (level 1) Training will be ONLINE via Zoom from March 17th – March 19th 2021.

• Alliance building skills that cut across different therapeutic orientations and diverse client populations
• How to use outcome management tools to inform and improve treatment
• How to determine your overall clinical success rates
• How to significantly improve your outcome and retention rate via feedback and deliberate practice

The training will be facilitated by Scott Miller, Ph.D. , ICCE Director along with International Center for Clinical Excellence faculty .
