theory and application of behavioural therapy
techniques in contrast with cognitive
techniques for use in individual counselling
settings. Behavioural and cognitive strategies
and their appropriate use in individual
psychotherapy will be examined, followed by a

when conducting assessments and collecting
behavioural observations. A strong emphasis
will also be placed on preparing professional
reports and charting therapy outcomes for use
in multidisciplinary settings.

Semester 7
Organizational
Behaviour
This course in Organizational Behaviour
provides an opportunity for students to
examine individual and group behaviour in
public, private and nonprofit organizations as
well as, the implications for effective
management and leadership roles. Beginning
with the individual process to the broader
organizational role, participants will explore
their own motivations, decision making
processes and leadership abilities. This work
will in turn, create a solid foundation for
understanding and transforming individual and
group work behaviours based on values and
attitudes, social behaviours, ABA & CBT
strategies, and organizational processes.
Students will be challenged to enrich their own
individual careers through the application of
organizational behaviour theories and
behavioural skills.
