The Adler-Dreikurs institute, being an integral part of the Graduate School of Bowie State University solved the certification problem and became the first fully accredited Adlerian Institute in the United States. This is quite a feat for which the University community can be proud and honored. The addition of Adlerian Psychology to the total counseling curriculum enhanced the scope of the department. Dr. Dreikurs, Adler's prodigy, was primarily responsible for instituting Adlerian training for counselors and other school personnel when he immigrated from Vienna to establish himself in Chicago. Dr. Dreikurs believed we must learn to live with each other as equals, which in his estimation was was the major challenge of today, moving away from an age of competition to an age of democracy and self responsibility.
Adlerian practitioners are worldwide.
The key to solving world problems involves cooperation, social interest, equality, and mutual respect. In the new millenium, we will need a model of holistic intervention in the spirit of mutual respect, cooperation and social interest.
