Overview of the Steps of an I Matter Journey
INSIGHT AND SKILLS THAT MATTER FOR RELATIONSHIP HEALTH
I Matter core training is intended for psycho-educational purposes and Continuing Professional Development and for strengthening the foundations of Relationship Health in professional and personal roles. The I Matter Face to Face Fundamentals (Blue) and the Core Online Programme (Red) can potentially be supported by Lead Professionals in member schools and services. When there is escalation and complexity, we describe this as a recovery pathway need. For a recovery pathway there needs to be an Advanced Practitioner who is working with a network of GP's and Schools. (PLEASE NOTE COLOURS CURRENTLY BEING ADJUSTED!)
