Space is available for our new training series, titled, “Advanced Engagement.”
During this highly interactive, multi-session training series, the learner will advance their skills in Motivational Interviewing. Learners will be offered multiple learning methods such as didactic discussion, small and large group practice, introspection, videos, hypothesis generation, low stakes testing, and self-study. Evaluation of progress will be measured with knowledge tests and skill observation with individualized feedback and coaching.
This training series meets the 2023 BCBSM scorecard requirements for the advanced engagement training. Additional information can be found on the Mi-CCSI website at https://www.miccsi.org/training_event/advancing-skills-in-patient-engagement-training/.

We would also like to direct folks to our website to learn more about the “Palliative Care” training. On the website is an example of an evidence-based serious illness conversation, which is covered in the Palliative Care training. Attendees have repeatedly rated this training as highly satisfied, and report this as a means of building both skill and confidence in having the serious illness conversation.
The link to the website with the palliative care training information and videos of an ideal and not so ideal conversation is https://www.miccsi.org/palliative-care-training-resources/.
Coming in 2024:
- Pain Management Substance Use Disorder. This training provides practitioners with the most current evidence on pain management, and non-medication alternatives to review with the patient experiencing chronic pain. It is a “preventative” approach to opioid dependency. The training is available free of charge and offered 4 times a year. Stay tuned for more information. Mi-CCSI thanks the State of Michigan for the funding to make this possible!
- Due to increased demand, we will be expanding the current palliative care training from every other month to monthly offerings. Additionally, to further align with the national language, we will be changing the title to “Serious Illness” training.
- To support the serious illness training and to encourage continued learning across the team, we are in the process of putting together 10-to-20-minute vignettes for providers and vignettes for non-licensed team members. The goal is to provide quick accessible information that can accommodate the busy practitioner and care team members. Stay tuned for additional information on the vignettes.
If you have any questions regarding the “Advanced Engagement” training or any other trainings, please contact Sue Vos via email at sue.vos@miccsi.org or phone at 616.292.5774.
