Learners will then be asked to demonstrate their MI skills through a series of simulated encounters. Learners will watch a series of videos that simulate a person they might be working with as a child welfare professional. After each video, learners will record themselves as if they were responding to this person sitting across from them in a way that is consistent with the MI skills and approach. Learner’s responses will be reviewed at the end of the course, a final score will be assigned, and they will receive feedback on their demonstration.
