Using Action to Effect Change

CERTIFIED PRACTITIONER (CP) AND TRAINER, EDUCATOR, PRACTITIONER (TEP) EXAM PREPARATION CLASSES



It’s been a long road, hasn’t it?  Years and years of facilitating sessions, supervision, continuing education, personal growth work...and now an exam. 


Where do I start?


At first glance, the CP or TEP exam

can seem incredibly overwhelming,

But it doesn’t have to be. 


These monthly teleconference

classes are designed to walk you

through the process of learning how to answer questions in all 7 categories - History, Philosophy, Methodology, Sociometry, Research, Ethics, and Related Fields.  With specific test-taking techniques, and an opportunities to study along with others who will be sitting for the exam, the learning environment is relaxed, supportive and fun.


Each month, participants are assigned a specific question to answer, based on prior CP and TEP exams, as well as reading psychodrama literature to augment their learning, and enhance their answers.  By participating with a group, each person has an opportunity to integrate many different ways of responding to a particular psychodrama group issue.  In addition, participants have spoken about how the class has helped them to deal with situations in psychodrama moving forward, or implement new training modules.  The group learning process allows for greater spontaneity to emerge for everyone!


Here are comments from a few students who’ve participated:


“I am so glad I joined your study group. I was such an integral part of my process.”

“Jean’s class is a wonderful way to connect with other PATs and focus on the Trainer Role. Her class provides the support and constructive feedback I need to keep on keeping on in the process. I look forward to it every month.”

“Jean Campbell's Exam Prep Class provided the structure I needed to prepare.  Jean generously shares her knowledge, skill and experience and facilitates a learning environment.   I always felt supported, encouraged and inspired after our Prep Class calls and I completed the Written TEP Exam with distinction in October, 2010!”

                    Suzie Jary, LCSW, TEP

                    Fort Worth, TX


“Working with Jean to prepare for my TEP exam was a tremendous help.  She is an excellent teacher: she knows the material inside and out and knows how to communicate it clearly.  Jean corrects errors or misunderstandings in a way that is encouraging, building on the strengths she sees in her students.  Throughout the preparation process, she reminded me to think like a TEP so that I could answer the questions and give examples of trainings that would be helpful to my trainees.  On top of that, Jean is well organized and available, responding quickly to questions and concerns.  I highly recommend her preparation classes!”
