Go Back

This workshop is filled to capacity. We encourage you to register for the Assessment of Family of Origin Issues Workshop offered at the same time. Behavioral Assessment 1 and 2 will be offered in 2019.

This workshop presents practical interviewing techniques housed in a theoretical framework of behavioral assessment. While the focus of the workshop is on initial assessment of candidates, the methodology easily applies to assessing candidates in other stages of formation as well. Workshop participants study sample case reports and learn skills for interviewing as well as guidelines for organizing the information into useful reports. Interview topics include: family background, educational and occupational histories, psychosexual histories and intimacy skills, faith history, and other pertinent issues related to comprehensive vocational assessment.

This workshop begins at 9 a.m. on Monday, July 16 and ends at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday, July 18. Overnight accommodations are contracted for 4 nights, arrival on July 15 and check out on July 19.

The content was helpful from beginning to end; there is no doubt my assessments will be more thorough. Thanks, Father Ray, for your expertise, experience, and sense of humor!

Having actual cases to review was very helpful. I learned a lot in the workshop, and I have a good idea on how to grow going forward. Father Ray practices what he teaches and is very credible. This is a great way to prepare for vocation ministry.
