The part one workshop for adults and professionals introduces the participant into the world of death education and the vast number of ways in which humans attempt to make sense of the varied approaches to the topic of death. This popular full-day workshop is perfect for anyone wanting to increase his/her confidence and improve communications around death, dying and loss with clients, patients, students, the general public, family, friends or colleagues. Do not miss this opportunity to take a class with Dr Wester, an expert in death studies, who enlivens the topic with practical and fascinating material.
The Part One workshop, with 5 hours Continuing Professional Development certificate, will help you:
- Understand why talking about death matters

- Increase confidence in talking about death with others
- Gain a greater understanding of the social consequences of loss
- Learn how to use notions of time to speak with people of all ages
- Explore the Importance of Language
