The 101 Introductory course in Transactional Analysis is endorsed by the European Association of Transactional Analysis and is a first step into understanding the workings of Transactional Analysis from both a personal and educational framework.

The 101 workshop is taught experientially and didactically from the Manchester Institute for Psychotherapy.  It is a 2 day course with personal growth and development of the self as its major focus. People come on this course who are interested in self development and how to use Transactional Analysis to aid an understanding of the self as well learning the basic concepts of TA in its essence.

People also come on this course to take the Transactional Analysis concepts back into either the Counselling, Educational, or Organisational fields.

The 101 workshop in Transactional Analysis is also the first step for people wishing to train to be Psychotherapists from a Transactional Analysis perspective.  Indeed, if you wish to enrol on our 4 year Psychotherapy Training course at MIP which starts the first week in October each year, you will need to have attended the 101 in Transactional Analysis so that you have a good grounding in the concepts of Transactional Analysis and of course what the Manchester Institute for Psychotherapy can offer in the way of teaching.

Finally, it is important to note that we teach the TA 101 from an integrative perspective, which means that we include many of the different concepts and philosophies from different therapeutic models and approaches.

The video below includes a brief introduction of what the 101 in Transactional Analysis actually is and also many of the people who have actually taken this 2 day course talk to the heart of what they actually got from the 101 experience. I hope this video is of use for you and gives you a glimpse into the world of Transactional analysis and the 101 experience.
