SSHA are delighted to announce 2 courses that will be run later on in the year. The training is of particular interest to health advisers since this is a core aspect of our role, so we hope you will be able to attend. Doctors and nurses are also welcome.

Helping people reduce sexual health risk using a Motivational Interviewing approach
To prepare sexual health staff to deliver the 2007 NICE recommendation of structured one to one risk reduction discussions based on a theory of behaviour change, for people at high risk of STI or under 18 pregnancies.
