Next Steps in Your TA Development
Join internationally respected Teaching and Supervising Transactional Analysts, Patrick Brook, Rachel Cook, and Keith Tudor for three days of focused preparation, practice, and professional development — wherever you are on your TA journey.
Whether you’re preparing for the CTA written or oral exams, the Training Endorsement Workshop (TEW), the TSTA exams, or working towards UKCP registration through an Advanced Diploma route (for example, the UKATA Case Study Pathway or Level 7 Diploma), this workshop offers tailored supervision, practical guidance, and a supportive space to refine your skills and deepen your confidence. The workshop is open to all fields of Transactional Analysis.
Transactional Analysis assessments and endorsements across all fields ask for more than technical competence. Examiners are interested in how you think as a transactional analyst; how you integrate theory and practice, reflect on your choices, and express your professional identity with clarity and authenticity. For many candidates, the challenge lies as much in articulating why they practise as it does in showing what they do.
Across the three days, you’ll take part in taught sessions, supervision, practice, discussion, and reflection designed to strengthen your confidence and preparedness. You’ll hone how you present your clinical or training work, develop your professional voice, and leave with a clearer sense of direction — whether that’s towards an upcoming assessment or in your ongoing professional development.
What you will gain
This workshop offers a rare opportunity to work intensively with three internationally respected TSTAs who bring complementary perspectives, extensive examination experience, and critical thinking.
In a supportive and collegial atmosphere, you will:
- Strengthen your understanding of what examiners look for at your level.
- Gain practical experience presenting and discussing your work.
- Develop clarity in articulating your theoretical and ethical reasoning.
- Receive targeted feedback to identify and address any areas for development.
- Explore any personal blocks that might arise
- Leave with an action plan for your next steps and renewed confidence in your professional identity.
Beyond assessment readiness, you’ll take away a deeper sense of what it means to think, speak, and act as a transactional analyst — and connections with colleagues who will continue to support your growth long after the workshop.
Length: 18 training hours across three days
Times: 9:30am to 4:30pm
Mode: In-person and in-room
Date: Tuesday 26th to Thursday 28th May 2026
Cost: £585 (inclusive of VAT)
Upon booking, we’ll send you a short registration form to help you identify your focus areas and learning needs.
