What is Px2
http://www.pacificinstitute.co.uk/
Growing up is full of challenges, contradictions and pressures. It has always been this way, but these days, everything seems to be on a much larger scale. The entertainment industry fills our minds with who we should aspire to be and what we should be doing with our lives. Advertisers tell us what to wear, how to look, and what music to listen to. Positive, productive role models for our children are harder and harder to find.
Career choices are no longer simple. Traditional industries are disappearing, while new ones arrive demanding greater skills from employees. Immediate employment out of college is no longer a "done deal". The critical thinking skills necessary to making the best career choices are not always taught in school.
For the teen making the transition from adolescent to adult, it can be a confusing and frightening time. To give our youth the tools to make this transition easier, and set them on a path to a successful, purposeful life, The Pacific Institute introduces PX2™ - the next generation in teen success.
With the constant stream of discoveries coming from researchers in the cognitive sciences, as well as physical brain research, it is important that The Pacific Institute maintain direct relationships with some of the most respected scientists in the world today.
Each program from The Pacific Institute is based on the research of such international luminaries as Dr. Albert Bandura of Stanford University, Dr. Martin Seligman of the University of Pennsylvania (both past presidents of the American Psychological Association), and Dr. Gary Latham of the University of Toronto (a past president of the Canadian Psychological Association). "I have counted on these experts, and so many others over the years, to keep my teaching correct and up to date. We all owe them a debt of gratitude, for their perseverance and persistence in helping all of us understand the intricacies of the human mind".

Lou Tice's Master of Education, with a focus on Mental Health, puts him in a unique position to take the research from the cognitive sciences and social learning theory and make it easy to understand and even easier to use. "Not everyone has a Ph.D. in psychology," says Lou, "and some of this research is difficult to understand for the layman. It is important information, and even more important that everyone have the opportunity to understand it and use it to their own benefit, and for the benefit of the people around them. That is where our programs come in - we make the difficult easy, understandable and do-able".
