Certification Program

Leadership Trainer's Certification Program is a one-of-a-kind, immersive, engaging, hands-on, trainer preparation experience that is guided by four objectives:

(1) Prepare you to facilitate amazing and impactful trainings rooted in dynamic, culturally relevant, and learning-oriented facilitation techniques - specifically ​experiential activities and reflective dialogue;

(2) Engage you in purposeful critical self-reflection and identity exploration;

(3) Utilize leadership scholarship to advance your own understanding and practice of leadership;

(4) Cultivate a community of other trainers and facilitators.

 

By effectively completing Leadership Trainer's Certification Program, you will become a knowledgeable, skilled, and dynamic Certified Master Trainer who can facilitate diverse training experiences in which your participants can access the training message and material, internalize their learning, and then apply that learning to their own practice.

How can we expect the next generations of leaders to navigate the challenges we will inevitably face, if the trainers and facilitators of today are ill-prepared to facilitate their leadership development?

We can’t. We shouldn’t!

Leadership Trainer's Certification Program ​will prepare you to serve as an exceptional trainer - the kind of facilitator that your participants crave - because of how engaging, dynamic, and impactful your training experiences have become!

This program is intentionally designed as an immersion into dynamic training tactics and facilitation techniques. We utilize a curated and powerful 'training story' methodology to ensure your trainings have a comprehensive design and flow that maximizes learning for your participants.

In pursuit of earning your Certified Master Trainer credential, you will become a savvy facilitator who can dynamically train and develop your participants in multiple contexts: one-to-one and small group engagements; retreats and conference presentations; workshops and seminars; academic courses, diverse continuing education programs, and more!
