Mexico City, July 3, 2023 - Whoever is not well with himself cannot be well with others . That is why the Advisory team team of SMART Center of the Universidad Panamericana held the fifth edition of the training course The Habit of Personal Wellness: Driver and Impact on College Counseling.
This training is a proposal aimed at counselors, which allows them to develop the tools to know themselves and identify the warning signs of stress due to the different adversities that life throws at them.
About the training
Created during 2020 in response to the stress we experienced due to the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic, and after the success of past editions, the training has returned semester after semester with new updates. This one offers innovative proposals and this semester's was the first face-to-face edition .
Its objective is to recognize the importance of personal well-being as the basis for providing effective support to others, which is why the training provides the best tools through a process divided into four stages: pre-work, face-to-face meetings, post-work and individual interviews, to follow up on topics of interest.
Through questionnaires, tests, readings and videos, the counselors discover the habits that contribute to their well-being, as well as those they need to incorporate into their lives to feel better. In addition, they learn to value attitudes of openness, resilience and solidarity in order to share their own experiences.
Thanks to the above, a close and warm approach is achieved throughout the process, allowing them to implement optimal strategies and a significant impact on the one-to-one relationship with their clients.
Smart Targets
At Smart Center campus Mexico our long term goal is to train the majority of advisors, helping them to be good with themselves. Remembering that by completing the five trainings and participating in a reflection activity, they will be able to obtain a diploma with curricular value, thus highlighting their commitment and professional development.
Smart Center appreciates the participation and interest in this training, and hopes that the fifth edition has been an enriching experience both personally and professionally.
It also extends an invitation to be part of the next edition during the summer of 2024. Together, we will work towards individual and collective well-being in these challenging times.
