Certified Instructor and Center Director Qualifications
We are dedicated to maintaining extremely high quality standards and ethics and only certify as instructors and center directors people who demonstrate that they can uphold our values and meet our Instructor Certification Standards for the programs they teach under our auspices.
The most important qualities for being a successful instructor are having a good heart, a good head, good emotional and physical health, and a deep commitment to making a difference in the world through this work.
"Seeing the empowerment of our students and hearing their stories of how our work has helped long after the class is deeply rewarding."
