INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE FACILITATOR COURSE
There are four courses contained within this Facilitator Certification course. An outline of what each course contains is listed below. There is final exam and an evaluation at the end of the course. When you pass the final exam with a score of 80% or higher, and mark all the lessons in the course “completed,” a verification of completion is automatically generated. Please keep this certificate for your records. When you attend the live component of the training, you will need to submit this verification in order to obtain your Certificate of Completion certifying you as a Mindfulness-Based Ecotherapy Facilitator. Certificates will be distributed on the last day of the live training, May 8, 2020. You must attend all five days of the conference in order to get a Certificate of Completion.
The four modules contained within this Certified Facilitator Program are:
Mindfulness-Based Ecotherapy in Clinical Practice – 25 hours
There are 12 sessions of materials in the workbook that accompanies the Mindfulness-Based Ecotherapy Program. There is a link below to download your pdf copy of this workbook. This is the workbook used to facilitate the program. There is usually at least one experiential exercise in each session. We will be engaging in each of the exercises in the workbook at the live portion of the conference at the Mindful Ecotherapy Center in Travelers Rest, SC on May 4-8, 2020.
You will need to read over the workbook prior to attending the conference.
When you begin facilitating your own groups, you may wish to have your students purchase the workbook as a handy reference.
Mindfulness: An Introduction – 15 hours ONLINE
This module of the course contains a clinical introduction to the skills of mindfulness. This module also guides you through several experiential exercises in mindfulness.
