This is a two-part course which gives participants a comprehensive introduction to Talking Mats, time to reflect on their interaction and communication skills and space to consider and plan how they would use them in their workplace.

It is run on two mornings with a month's interval in between to allow participants time to make a video of themselves using the mats.This then forms the basis for the second session's discussion.
The maximum number of participants on this course is 16. The cost includes both sessions and a copy of the handbook 'Talking Mats: A Resource to Enhance Communication' by Joan Murphy and Lois Cameron and is £115 per person. The next available dates for our rolling programme are Friday 23 January and Friday 27 February 2009 (please download a flier and booking form here). The venue for both morning sessions will be Stirling Management Centre.
