The Bouverie Centre has a tradition of providing high quality training to mental health services. Over the past five years, Bouverie has developed the FaST method of training which makes systemic family ideas relevant to all workers in mental health. For details click on FaST. There is currently six methods Bouverie uses to deliver training, they are:

1. La Trobe University accredited courses from the Graduate Diploma in Family Sensitive Practice and Family Therapy to Doctorates in Family Therapy. (See Academic Services for details and costs).

2. Continuing Education courses for professionals in a range of topics relating to family sensitive work and family therapy. Continuing Education courses that have a specific mental health focus and that build on the more basic Get Together FaST program are called FaST Extension courses. See the Continuing Education calendar for details including an application form and costs.

3. Workshops or brief presentations in any topics relating to family sensitive practice or family therapy where Bouverie staff have relevant experience. All of the workshops in the Continuing Education program can be adapted to suit local organisations and can be delivered on site. See Onsite Training Services for more information on costs.

4. Get Together FaST initiatives in which clinicians and managers get together with family members and clients to learn from each other and to work together to develop more family sensitive services. See Get Together FaST for details. The FaST team are piloting a distance education program of Get Together FaST. Anyone interested can call Brendan O'Hanlon on Email:
b.o'hanlon@latrobe.edu.au or Phone: 9385 5100.

Cost : $5000 for a service which includes participant workbooks and all reference materials (maximum 25 participants)

5. Train the Trainer programs which are designed to enable participants to deliver the comprehensive Get Together FaST basic course and induction programs within their own service. This program is ideal, but not limited to, people who have completed a Get Together FaST initiative.
