Transcript of ICASSI 2010

  • 1 ICASSI 2010 promises to be a most comprehensive and enriching learning experience, and I and my fellow faculty members look forward to seeing you in Romania in July of 2010.

    I am grati fi ed that the annual Rudolf Dreikurs Summer Insti tute is going strong in its 43rd year. It is a testament to the ti meless value of the principles and teachings of Adler and Dreikurs. The 2010 Summer Insti tute is a refl ecti on of ongoing e orts of ICASSI to ensure that our internati onal insti tute brings fresh ideas, novel applicati ons and updated course material to parti cipants every year.

    We are pleased that ICASSI 2010 will be strengthened by the additi on of accomplished new faculty members. There will also be a broader range of program opti ons, more full-day courses and a number of new courses. We are fortunate to have Romanian instructors who will o er courses in their own language, as well as the usual diversity of courses by instructors from many nati ons. Additi onally, in the plenary morning sessions we are fortunate to have special translati ons in small groups for Hungarian, Bulgarian, and Romanian parti cipants. As always, the Summer Insti tute will bring together individuals from many nati ons, providing a truly unique opportunity to learn alongside and share experiences with colleagues from around the world. Parti cipants will acquire knowledge and learn practi cal skills that will serve them in their professional and personal lives. The classes will deal with contemporary challenges in areas of parenti ng, couple relati onships, school, counseling and clinical practi ce, the workplace, and in multi -cultural relati onships.

    Adlerian psychology is as relevant as ever, with its focus on cooperati on, equality and mutual respect between individuals and groups, and its understanding of the whole person. In todays complex, fast-changing world, we must conti nue to fi nd ways to help more people live healthy and strength-based lives. Whether you are a professional who counsels or teaches others or an individual or family member seeking personal development, you will benefi t from the life-changing learning experience of ICASSI 2010.

  • 3ICASSI THE INTERNATIONAL COMMITTEE OF ADLERIAN SUMMER SCHOOLS AND INSTITUTESA BRIEF HISTORY ICASSI (the Internati onal Committ ee of Adlerian Summer Schools and Insti tutes) is a non-profi t educati onal organizati on whose objecti ve is to help professionals, students, and lay persons learn the teachings of Adler and Dreikurs and mas-ter appropriate skills, and to teach Adlers and Dreikurs principles and methods where professional and personal development opportuniti es are needed.

    Alfred Adler, a young colleague of Sigmund Freud in the early years of the 20th Century, developed a psychiatric and educati onal treatment and preventi on ap-proach that today would be called a strength-based and community-oriented psychology. The emphasis was on the fundamental moti vati on of human beings to belong and to contribute to the larger society in which they live.

    Rudolf Dreikurs, a younger colleague of Adler, established ICASSI and the Sum-mer Insti tute in 1962. Dreikurs created ICASSI because of his ongoing dedicati on to spreading the teachings of Adler to people around the world, not only as a psychological method of treatment, but as a philosophy of life.

    In his early days of practi cing psychiatry in Vienna, Dreikurs saw the need to ex-tend his o ce into the community. He was convinced that use of Adlerian edu-cati on methods in the home and in the school would enable children to reach a higher level of functi oning. He believed they would develop a greater sense of their own strength and ability, and would learn the responsibility of citi zenship in a free world. He was also convinced that preventi on was more important than treatment.

    From his immediate community, Dreikurs extended his work to the nati on and then internati onally, starti ng with his fi rst visit to Brazil in 1937 and again in 1946. He moved to the United States in 1937, working internati onally in Israel in 1959 and holding the fi rst Internati onal Summer School in Denmark in 1962. He visu-alized the acceptance of social interest among a steadily widening group of people world-wide, who would experience living in harmony and peace.

    It was Dreikurs hope to hold the Summer Insti tute in a di erent country each year wherever there was a group in need of impetus to grow.

    THEORY AND PRACTICE OF ADLER AND DREIKURS: IN A NUTSHELLAdlerian psychology is holisti c (each of us is a unique whole person), social, and purposive (human acti on is understood in terms of self-set goals, of which we usually are not aware). Mental health is understood in terms of a persons or a communitys striving for contributi on, equality, and mutual respect between in-dividuals and between groups. Based on many decades of e ecti ve methods for preventi on and treatment of psychological and social problems, Adlerian theory and practi ces o er concrete steps for improved human relati onships in the fam-ily, school, and workplace, and in multi -nati onal interacti ons.

  • 4THE ICASSI MISSION:Using the theory and practi ce of Individual Psychology as learned through the teachings of Alfred Adler and Rudolf Dreikurs:

    Reach out to others through educati on, training, dia- logue, and experienceEnhance the spirit of social interest, sharing, and coop- erati on, and foster equality by making a common e ort to eliminate the barriers between nati onaliti es, age groups, genders, religions, social classes, races, profes-sions, and any other arti fi cial disti ncti ons by which humans believe themselves to be divided Sti mulate leadership in di erent countries and help po- tenti al and existi ng leaders in their e orts to establish a world of peace and cooperati on

    FOR WHOM IS ICASSI INTENDED?ICASSI o ers a sti mulati ng environment in which professionals, individuals, couples, and families learn within a diverse internati onal collegial community. It provides unique instructi on and experienti al learning for professional and personal development provided by an internati onal faculty. It is designed for:

    Counselors & Psychotherapists Psychologists & Social Workers Teachers & Educators Business Professionals Coaches Clergy People interested in understanding themselves & their relati onships Birth, Foster & Adopti ve Families Children & Youths Early Childhood Educators Health-Care Professionals Students at all levels People interested in the psychology of Alfred Adler & Rudolf Dreikurs

    The ICASSI program is unique in providing the The ICASSI program is unique in providing the highest quality of professional educati on in an enriching social environment. Parti cipants choose from a wide range of courses in the theory and techniques of Adler and Dreikurs, with ap-plicati on to counseling and therapy, business, schools, families, the community, and the workplace. Experienti al workshops provide professional training for the practi ti oner and opportuniti es for personal growth to all parti cipants. As encouragement, cooperati on and respect are fundamental Adlerian concepts, all workshops follow codes of confi denti ality.

  • 5In additi on, ICASSI parti cipants are given the opportunity to present seminars on issues of concern to them through Special Interest sessions.

    Parti cipants come to ICASSI from around the world, typically from over twenty di erent countries. Recreati onal and multi -cultural exchanges are therefore integral parts of the ICASSI experience and contribute to a strong sense of fellowship and connectedness. Social acti viti es also provide opportuniti es for the exchange of ideas, viewpoints, stories, songs and laughter.

    For parents wishing to bring their families, there are courses for teenagers and an excel-lent childrens program for 4-11 year olds under the supervision of multi lingual and multi -cultural leaders.

    ICASSI is proud of its foundati on on a psychology with roots in two languages, and provides translati on to help parti cipants share in the learning and exchange of ideas. ICASSI values the cultural and linguisti c diversity that is funda-mental to its success, and celebrates the more than 20 nati ons that parti cipate each year.

    CHILDREN AND YOUTHS PROGRAMS ICASSI o ers a unique, internati onal, educati onal program for children and youths. While the parents are learning the theory of Individual Psychology in the morning lectures and learning to use it during Blocs II and III, qualifi ed teachers will lead the children playfully into the basics of Individual Psychology. There is a special value to having a bi-lingual (English and German) experi-ence in this childrens program, as children become more culturally aware and comfortable in a global society. The objecti ve of the teachers is to encourage children to confi dently fi nd their place in the group and to design the way the group functi ons with the other children and teachers. The educati onal world of ICASSI is determined from people learning with each other about the world around them. Here the approach is Help me do it by myself with others in a way that my abiliti es will contribute to the community. Parents are included in this process.

    The Childrens Program is open to children ages 4 to 11 during Blocs 1, 2 and 3. Children must be at least 4 years old and toilet trained to parti cipate in ICASSIs Childrens Program. The program is a unique opportunity for young people to learn and socialize in an encouraging atmosphere. The leaders are bi-lingual and the children have an exciti ng opportunity to make friends with young people from diverse cultures of many nati ons from around the world.

    ICASSI also o ers programs for youths ages 12 to 17. During Blocs 1 and 3 there are recreati onal programs, while Bloc 2 o ers a personal develop-ment course for youths 12 to 17. Youths 15 to 17 may also parti cipate in adult courses unless otherwise stated.

    Parents are responsible for their children and youths at all ti mes, and are ex-pected to be clear about rules, boundaries and expected behavior.

    PARENT MEETINGS: Sta running the programs for children and youth will be available during registrati on to meet with parents and respond to their ques-ti ons. Parents and their children and youths are asked to meet with program sta on the Monday of each week. It is very important that all parents att end. The purpose of the meeti ngs is to exchange informati on, and to allow sta to explain ICASSI policies and expectati ons. The ti me and place of the meeti ngs will be announced at registrati on and at Bloc 1 on Monday morning. See the newslett er in case you forget the locati on.

    Parents of children under 4 years of age must make their own arrangements for child care. ICASSI does not provide care to this age group. Informati on to help parents fi nd resources may be provided on request.

    ACCOMMODATIONS: Room and Board

    This year accommodati on fees at the Alpin and Condor Hotels include room as well as breakfast and dinner, opening recepti on, farewell dinner, co ee breas and administrati ve fees. Some good news for cost-conscious families is that the Hotel Alpin allows one child 14 or under to sleep in the room of a parent or sibling on a cot or sleeping bag provided by the parents; hence the No Bed category under rates below. This applies ONLY to a child age 14 or under sleeping in a room of a parent or sibling.
