The CPPA organizes a regular speaker series that features original webinars by leading researchers and practitioners whose work involves positive psychology (see past events below). Many such speakers will be at our conference in 2014.  Here is what one participant said about Dr. John Zelenski's CPPA webinar on the relationship between nature and well-being:

 

"Thanks for responding fully to my specific questions at the end of the webinar; I very much appreciate that. I also like the technology and feel the webinar flowed nicely. The backgrounds of the PowerPoint presentation are great, and the content is rich and well-presented. Following the webinar, I feel even more intensely connected to the natural world and notice myself noticing natural elements more and appreciating them on an even deeper level. The webinar is therefore a great reminder for me, and the data/research you present is rather interesting. Looking forward to hearing more on this topic in-future."

    Description:

    In November 2015, the Canadian Positive Psychology Association held the 2nd Educating for Resilience Conference. This conference was developed for teachers, counsellors, educators, and positive psychology practitioners who are interested in learning about how to use Positive Psychology to increase resilience in schools. We partnered with Upper Canada College (UCC) and had a complete new line-up of talented and highly inspirational speakers. It was an outstanding day of learning about how to increase resilience in schools for student, faculty, and staff.


    While traditional mental health programs focus on coping with mental illness, Educating for Resilience provides the strategies and techniques to increase positive mental health and fitness - a rapidly growing focus in the teaching community. Register now and start building resilient classrooms!

    The CPPA is proud to work in partnership with the Flourishing Centre to bring the Certificate in Applied Positive Psychology (CAPP) program to our Canadian community.


    CAPP graduates feel empowered that they know the science behind happiness, well-being and flourishing, so that when people say, “Why should I invest in becoming happier?” Graduates can share facts like, “Research shows happy people are physically healthier, they have stronger social networks, they achieve more and have even been found to live longer.”



    Certification offers personal and professional rewards to the individual who attains it. Because the CAPP program is ICF approved to award CCE hours, coaches receive a total of 36 CCE's upon graduation. Certification validates specialty knowledge, enhances professional credibility, and contributes to feelings of personal accomplishment.
