What is CIC

It is based on the simple idea that everyone, whether as a patient, client, learner or colleague, can benefit from
having opportunities to reflect on their professional experiences and being skilfully questioned about these.

CIC can be applied to a variety of situations;
- person centred consultations with individuals and families
- supervision, coaching and mentoring
- conflict resolution
- training in reflective practice and professionalism, active learning sets and collaborative learning groups
- Leadership and management

This course will be experiential with facilitated small groups sessions to enable participants to practise CIC
and enhance their interactional skills using “real-play” case studies and clinical scenarios brought by participants

The course tutors are CIC accredited trainers with considerable experience in delivering CIC courses.

The PPA are passionate about developing supporting therapists to become more confident in applying these skills
clinically. In collaboration with John Launer and the CIC team we are really pleased to offer this exciting
introductory CIC course.

If you’ve attended the monthly PPA peer reflecting group session you will be familiar with the CIC reflective team
model used. This course will provide a chance to both learn and practice to help you to become confident and
embed these skills into daily practice.

What others have said.. ‘Very helpful group I can see how this can be used with patients that are struggling with
change but also colleague challenges’. ‘Consideration of how to use the person's language and SOS questions to
allow the person time to reflect and consider their own challenges and resources’ ‘It was useful to learn clear ways
to questions individuals to try and encourage them to think about ways of dealing with difficult situations’
