Hosts 12th Family Counseling Course to Enhance Personal and Professional
Development
As part of an
ongoing specialized training program to qualify professionals in the field of
family counseling, Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina, hosted the
12th Marriage and Family Counseling Course under the theme “Personal and
Professional Development” from December 26 to 28. The course was organized by
the Department of Religious Affairs at the Presidency of the Islamic Community
in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Enhancing Skills and Standardizing Professional Practices
This 12th course is
part of a planned series aimed at qualifying supervisors and family counseling
teams working within the local councils of the Islamic Community across
different cities, contributing to the standardization of professional practices
and the exchange of experiences among participants.
The course was
organized in cooperation with the World Muslim Youth Organization and the
Center for Personal and Professional Development, reflecting an integrated
institutional effort to support families and promote social stability.
A Comprehensive Program Combining Theory and Practice
The program included
a series of lectures and interactive workshops that combined theoretical
presentations with practical applications, aiming to develop participants’
skills both personally and professionally, positively impacting the quality of
counseling services provided to families.
Participants
received specialized presentations on marriage and family issues, leadership,
social capital, and time management, with a focus on practical tools for
counseling work. They also attended lectures on self-protection while
maintaining professionalism, along with a set of practical guidelines based on
participants’ experiences and field challenges. The course also covered topics
on personal and professional development tools, effective professional
communication, enhancing institutional performance, and building cohesive work
teams, all delivered by field experts.
The organizers
emphasized the importance of continuous investment in human resources,
highlighting the tangible results achieved over five years of family counseling
centers’ operations from 2020 to 2025. They noted the annual growth in the
number of counseling centers affiliated with local Islamic councils, which
provide free advisory services and professional support to community members.
Upcoming annual reports are expected to provide a comprehensive overview of
activities and the number of sessions conducted in 2025.
Participants
unanimously agreed that this training model, combining theoretical lectures
with practical workshops, is more effective than traditional seminars, as it
offers practical tools and field techniques that contribute to improving the
quality of family counseling work on the ground.
