Columbia approves CTI course

November 10, 2009

Columbia University will offer the first academic course on CTI to social work graduate students.  Entitled, Facilitating Continuity of Care for Vulnerable Populations in Critical Transitions: Applications of CTI, the course is part of the school’s advanced generalist practice sequence.  Dr. Fang-pei Chen, an assistant professor at the school, plans to offer the seven week course during the spring semester of 2010.  The course will address risk factors and strengths of a variety of vulnerable populations in transition; introduce the CTI model, its practice skills, and supervision; and explore its broader applications. For the final assignment, students will be asked to conceive and design a transitional service model adapting the approach and strategies employed in CTI.  For further information, please contact Dr. Chen at fc2208@columbia.edu
