Welcome to the Infant CARE-Index (ICI) training course.

The ICI is the simplest and most versatile of the DMM measures and is a qualitative assessment of risk in relationships.

It assesses patterns of interaction of infants and their carers from birth to about fifteen months of age based on a short, videoed play interaction of 3 minutes.

The scales:

1. Are highly correlated with the Infant Strange Situation assessment patterns of attachment
2. Differentiate abusing from neglecting, abusing-and-neglecting, marginally maltreating, and adequate dyads
3. Can be used during intervention, and
4. Can be used to assess the effectiveness of intervention.

Your 12-day course will be taught from video in 4 day blocks. Non-verbal behaviour, interpersonal strategies, and developmental processes are emphasised.

Competency to code is assessed by a reliability test after the training. It is much more likely that you will achieve reliability if you undertake the set practice during and after the 12 day training. All of the practice videos can be accessed here.

You will find the course manual and handout pack on the Materials tab above.
