CHOICES – interview-style video on behavior change

This video example of this style of training comes from Changing High-Risk Alcohol Use and Increasing Contraception Effectiveness Study (CHOICES). It is a program for women about choosing healthy behaviors. The CHOICES program itself was developed by the CDC to help prevent alcohol exposed pregnancies. Our effort involved converting the training that supported this program (a traditional instructor-led course) into blended asynchronous/synchronous online course. Six presenter-led videos present the material in a logical and practical way of encouraging social and behavior change. One of the skills taught in this program is how to conduct an interview using the prescribed method.
