Welcome to the VIA Intensives!

Every day we hear from coaches, psychologists, counselors, management consultants, social workers and educators who are implementing the VIA Survey, Classification and concepts in their work.  Because positive psychology is a burgeoning field with new research and practices, practitioners and others have many questions:
  • How do I best introduce the VIA with my clients?
  • What interventions are most effective? 
  • Are there any new interventions?
  • What is the latest research?
We also sense a desire for deeper knowledge about each of the character strengths and virtues: the consensual definitions, theoretical traditions, development, enabling and inhibiting factors, as well as deliberate, specific interventions. 

As a result, The VIA Institute is delighted to announce the VIA Intensives: workshops/courses that will bring you up to date on the latest research findings and best practices.

Register now!

Join us for Character Strengths and Virtues in Practice at the Courtyard by Marriott Magnificent Mile in Chicago on September 18 and 19, 2009, with an opening reception on September 17.
