Overview
The MBTI® Step III™ instrument completes Isabel Myers' extensive work on type development, an aspect of typology that she began to study quite early in her development of the Indicator. Myers' overriding goal was not only to give people access to their Jungian type but also to help them make the most effective use of that type—to develop their type as fully as possible.
Myers' extensive research was studied, tested, and enhanced by a team of type experts. The result is the most highly individualized interpretive report available for assessing healthy personality. Step III is suitable for users skilled in one-to-one client interactions, such as counselors, therapists, and coaches.

Agenda
Daily Schedule 8:30am–5:00pm
The goal of the MBTI® Step III™ Certification Program is to give participants sufficient knowledge of the Step III approach, as well as experience with report interpretation, so they feel competent and confident as they begin to use the report with clients. The three-day MBTI® Step III™ Certification Program covers:
- The Isabel Briggs Myers approach to personality development
- The underlying assumptions of type development theory and the Step III instrument
- Construction, reliability, and validity evidence that supports Step III development and its applications
- The nature and definitions of the scales and patterns that form the basis for the statements and suggestions included in the Step III™ Interpretive Report
- How to use dialogue as the centerpiece of the interpretive experience
- Ways to consider the client's personality type as a context for interpreting the Step III report
- How to conceptualize, discuss, and interpret report contents in an affirming manner in order to promote positive growth and development
In addition, participants will be able to practice what they have learned in a variety of exercises, one-to-one interactions, and group discussions.
