The TCW includes an introduction that addresses professional continuing education standards, workshop learning objectives, and encouragement of active participant engagement throughout the workshop.  Major topic areas of training include facilitation of learning environments, principles, and characteristics of adult learning (andragogy), development of experience-level didactic presentations, including quantifiable learning objectives, organization of clinical hypnosis training workshops and small group practice sessions, careful selection of faculty, and management of unusual training and consultation situations.  Additionally, a review of ASCH Standards of Training, especially Levels 1 and Level 2 workshop training, including optimization of workshop participant and/or patient safety with respect to appropriate re-alerting and re-orienting, is emphasized. Finally, there is a review of learning contract responsibilities, case consultation, providing useful and meaningful feedback to those with whom one is consulting, the use and documentation of adjunct consultants, and ethical considerations.
