- The Client Encounters Using ICON9 Video series is a complete training course in six modules, including scripts, exercises and checks
- The Client Encounters Using ICON9 Audio series – somewhat experimental – is designed for learning reinforcement through short audio exercises
- Every new training program has a dedicated area, containing copies of presentations made, supplementary material, instructions for exercises, checkpoint guidelines, and so on.
