When: 24 Aug 2021
Where: Online Event
Tutors: Sophie Sansom, Gemma Griffith
About the event:
In this session, Sophie Sansom and Gemma Griffith will be outlining the development and evolution of the Mindfulness-based Interventions: Teaching Assessment Criteria (MBI:TAC).
The MBI:TAC was first published in 2013 (Crane et al., 2013) and is now widely used to assess the competency of teachers of MBPs in both research and training contexts. It has been translated into seven languages and is used by training organisations across fourteen countries.
Recently, Gemma Griffith and colleagues have developed a reflective tool based on the MBI:TAC called the Mindfulness-Based Interventions: Teaching and Learning Companion (the TLC). This new tool will be introduced, covering both its development and usage.
The event will take place online using Zoom.
Who is the event for:
Anyone who has an established mindfulness practice is welcome.
