Microproject Practitioner Licence

The Microproject Practitioner Licence is a structured practice role within the I Matter Learning System.

It is for motivated professionals who want to  progress relationship health learning in real-life situations in a small supported, reflective way.

It is inspired by the idea of lighting a candle' in difficult times - we can't do everything but we can each do something

It is not a qualification or clinical role.

It is a licensed practice role within a learning system.   

Completion of a microproject is a key aspect of our lightweight certification approach

🧭 What the licence allows you to do

As a Microproject Practitioner, you are licensed to:

• progress specific small projects (1-3 individuals) using I Matter resources
• use the online learning system to support small intiatives in your setting
  
• use learning in your professional or practitioner-parent role
• reflect on your practice using the I Matter approach
• determine which solutions fit well with your own local needs
• develop understanding through real-world application
  

🧩 What Microproject Practice involves

Microproject Practice is built on the idea that:

meaningful change happens through small-scale, real-world application supported by reflection.

It is not about delivering intervention.

⚠️ Microproject Best Practice

Microprojects are intended to help individual practitioners take positive small actions in their own settings.

We expect participants to manage them according to some best practice guidelines.

⚠️ Important

Microprojects are not intended to set up a clinical service, supervision model, or assessment programme.

They offer a structured learning and practice system that benefits from local conversations.
