Couples Relationship Enhancement® (RE) Program
Educator/Leader Training Workshop
An award-winning meta-analytic outcome study conducted at Purdue
University found The Relationship Enhancement®
Program to be the most effective of twelve major couple relationship-strengthening and
marriage enrichment programs. This two-day training workshop emphasizes the building of
participants' leadership skills through a process that combines lecture, video, role-playing
demonstrations, and intensively supervised skill practice. This training will prepare
participants to lead the Couples Relationship Enhancement®
Weekend and other RE programs. Topics covered include: leadership style, skills for
effective leadership, the use of role-play demonstrations to facilitate participant learning,
and the supervision of participants' skill practice sessions. This training is open to mental
health professionals and qualifying non-professionals.
