I can think of two sources of training, depending on your access
possibilities. The Occupational Division of the British Psychological
Society runs a series of 1-day continuing professional development
courses. One of these is a course on repertory grid technique, which I
teach, and which is due to be repeated sometime in the spring.
Karen Hanson is the person who organises the whole programme, and she's
contactable at:
karen@hansonwp.demon.co.uk
Secondly, Fay Fransella offers a variety of training and support
opportunities. All my documentation on this is at work, and here I am at
home at the moment. But if you have a more counselling/guidance/clinical
bent to your interest, then please contact me on e-mail at work,
devi@tees.ac.uk and I'll look up the relevant details for you: _much_
more relevant to such applications than anything that I, with my
occupational orientation, could offer; and Fay's servcies extedn to the
occupational field of application too, BTW.
Kind regards,
Devi
