About the program:

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is a respected questionnaire designed to make Carl Jung's theory of psychological types understandable and useful in everyday life.  MBTI results identify valuable differences between normal, healthy people, differences that can be the cause of much misunderstanding and miscommunication.  Taking the MBTI will help you identify your unique gifts.  The information enhances understanding of yourself, your motivation, your natural strengths and your potential areas for growth.  It will also help you appreciate people who differ from you.  Being aware of our differences and the possible differences of our learners is crucial in our training/learning positions.  The MBTI is the most widely used instrument for  understanding normal personality differences, Because it explains basic patterns in human functioning, it is used for a wide variety of purposes including:  self development, career development, organizational development, team building, curriculum development,  management and leadership training, and diversity training.  More than two million Indicators are administered annually in the United States. The MBTI is also used internationally and has been translated into more than 30 languages.
