AMA’s Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) Certification Program
Seminar No: 08592-XNBB
CEU Credits: 2.4
Length: 4 days
Get certified to administer the world’s most widely used personality assessment.
Apply the MBTI tool to empower employees, enhance team productivity and reduce conflict. AMA’s newly updated MBTI® program is a highly interactive, four-day workshop that focuses on the key MBTI applications of team building, leadership and individual development. It features a hands-on, practical approach that prepares you to professionally and ethically administer and interpret the MBTI instrument—immediately upon your return to work.
Unlike earlier versions of the program, this seminar also includes training in MBTI Step II, which provides a more richly textured picture of type and behavior using 20 additional facets. Step II shows how each person expresses their type uniquely and individually.
