First National Motivational Interviewing-Based Health Coaching Training Conference

HealthSciences Institute and the PartnersinImprovement Alliance are pleased to host the first National Motivational Interviewing (MI) Health Coaching Conference. We kick-off on October 2nd with a Chronic Care Professional (CCP) Preconference, followed by an evening welcome and networking reception for attendees and members of our National Population Health Improvement Learning Collaborative. October 3rd and 4th, we'll offer our popular MI Skill-Building Workshop for health care professionals--validated to improve proficiency in health coaching best practice. This program is offered for the first time on an open-enrollment basis.

October 5th you'll learn how you can be a Registered Health Coach. (CCP and the MI Skill-Building Workshop fulfill the two main training requirements). We conclude with a review of groundbreaking findings from a 2011 National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded study led by one of our faculty that resulted in a four-fold increase in engagement over usual industry rates in a “real-world” telephonic health care demonstration—using skills you’ll build by attending this conference. We’ll also share how some of the nation’s top health systems and health plans are improving engagement, quality and customer results by measuring staff health coaching proficiency and program quality.

Featuring Two Validated Programs 

HealthSciences Institute prepares health care professionals to use of brief, highly effective approaches for partnering with people for better health and independence. We translate research from health care and the behavioral sciences to engage people in disease self-care and to facilitate positive lifestyle changes. Since 2004 HealthSciences has offered the only nationally recognized, accredited learning and certification program in chronic care and health coaching (the Chronic Care Professional Certification Program). CCP program is based on the recommendations of the Institute of Medicine for a 21st Century Health Care Workforce. It has been piloted in three states, and linked with reductions in hospitalization and improvements in clinical values both in telephonic condition management and medical home settings. Over 5,000 have achieved CCP certification. 

The MI Skill-Building Workshop has been delivered to teams of over 250 among some of the nation’s premier health plan and provider organizations. For the first time it is being offered on an open-enrollment basis. The MI program is designed to build proficiency in the only health coaching approach validated to improve patient-level outcomes in over 300 clinical trials. The MI workshop features MINT health care specialists and reflect the validated MI proficiency development guidelines of the Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT).  Both programs fulfill two core training requirements for the Registered Health Coach (RHC) credential.
