Positive Psychology
In this 8 week training course, taught by Robert Biswas-Diener,
you will be introduced to a new science of positive psychology.
You will learn about the research evidence supporting the
notion that it is highly worthwhile to develop strengths
rather than shore up weaknesses, and that happiness can
be beneficial.
You will also learn how to keep current with trends in
positive psychology and translate heady academic jargon
into language and tools their clients can use.
Finally, participants will be instructed on how they can
incorporate positive psychology responsibly in their existing
practices and market their new skills for maximum effect.

The Coaching Institute's
POSITIVE PYSCHOLOGY
Positive Psychology Coaching is a dynamic new way to
work with clients that blends the virtues of cutting
edge science and the appeal of a positive strengths-based
focus, with the effectiveness of coaching. Positive
psychology is not naïve positivity or a promise
of permanent bliss. Rather, positive psychology is the
careful study of happiness, optimism, success, creativity,
and other aspects of human flourishing.
You don't need a PhD to understand it, however, and
this engaging course will help you translate basic research
into powerful interventions for you and your clients.
Perhaps best of all, positive psychology can be easily
integrated into any existing coaching practice and used
effectively by anyone.
