“…This is accomplished by making the family aware of their maladaptive patterns and modifying their perceptions, communications and problem-solving skills. Cleghorn and Levin (1973) have defined basic learning objectives for training family therapists. 'Three kinds of objectives can be classified: Perceptual, conceptual and executive.…”

This paper arises from a didactic and experiential workshop where the participants examined their 'problem' families and the characteristics the families possessed which the therapists did not like. These characteristics were explored and the participants came to an understanding of these 'problem' families. Blocks to creativity were discussed and the participants claimed their own 'blocks'. Style and presence of the therapist as a creative change agent was explored.

“…In order to evaluate trainees' acquisition of skills it is important to have criteria for those skills. These have been identified by Cleghorn and Levin (1973), Tomm and Wright (1979), Mendelsohn and Ferber (1972), Haley (1976) and WalrondSkinner (1979). In particular, Cleghorn and Levin identify three primary skills: perceptual, conceptual and executive.…”

This paper looks at some of the issues associated with attempting to provide training in family therapy on a low budget of time and money. It also considers some more general points to do with providing training. The more extensive programmes referred to which take place in the U.S.A. are not yet viable in the U.K. It is not suggested that they should be copied, since professional cultures differ, but some learning can usefully take place. The aims and methods of teaching on introductory and intermediate low budget short courses are described and compared, and some vignettes given in order to propose ways of making such training effective. Course outlines and trainee evaluation of such training are given in the appendices.

This paper describes the development, implementation and monitoring of a family therapy training programme with several special features. Training was given to staff of a large agency at a site distant from the trainers. Because input from trainers was limited, peer‐group self‐directed teaching approaches were used. Formal evaluation demonstrated that the programme was successful. This report describes the concepts, methods and techniques which were employed in this programme and which can be easily used in other settings.
