To get the most from Motivational Interviewing skills training participants need ongoing supports. The absence of such supports can mean wasted valuable resources. While MI can seem easy to understand intellectually, success mostly comes through practice, proper supervision and ongoing in-house training. Serious organizations must institute systems that ensure their staff acquire and retain skills taught so they are not too reliant on external trainers.
