Abstract

An invitation was sent to all programme leads for qualifying level courses in family and systemic psychotherapy to contribute to this issue of Context and a small group of us accepted the invitation, and considered how we might respond. With one of AFT's core tasks being the accreditation of training programmes, it seemed fitting for us to reflect on contemporary issues in systemic training. In deciding the focus of the article, we pulled together some initial ideas that centred around the training legacies and traditions passed on from our training elders, our thoughts on what we might keep and how we might do things differently. We acknowledged that the crafting of a training programme is never a one-person show; rather, it is the continuous weaving of a tapestry with the threads, textures and colours of influences of others from the past, present and future: a work always in progress. We also acknowledged the fact that any effective systemic training programme will undoubtedly reflect and be responsive to the societal zeitgeist.
