And here is info about the webinar:

“Dr. Barry Duncan – What in the heck is CDOI? Client Directed, Outcome Informed Ideas and Practices”

You might hear folks say CDOI this or CDOI that, and wonder, what in the heck is CDOI?! Client directed, outcome informed services contain no fixed techniques or causal theories regarding the concerns that bring people to treatment. Any interaction can be client-directed and outcome-informed when the consumer’s voice is privileged, social justice is embraced, recovery is expected, and helpers purposefully form partnerships to: (1) enhance the factors across theories that account for success—especially the heart and soul of change; (2) use client’s ideas and preferences (theories) to guide choice of technique and model; and (3) inform the work with reliable and valid measures of the consumer’s experience of the alliance and outcome. This webinar covers the waterfront, from recovery to the common factors to the ORS and SRS—an all in one place description of this thing we call CDOI.

And I wanted to let you know about all the publicity the Norway Feedback Study has received after a press release was sent out by the University of Rhode Island—a co-investigator of the study was Dr. Jacqueline Sparks, faculty in the Department of Human Development and Family Studies.
