About the Facilitator Training

PP does not make profit from the accreditation training. Currently we are offering only our virtual Facilitator Training program (vFT). The program can be completed at one’s own pace, making it possible to combine with personal commitments.

The accreditation programs consist of several parts:

• 
  Virtual and self-directed learning (3-4 weeks, 5-6hrs weekly)
• 
  The Potential Project retreat (2 days)
• 
  PP content delivery and facilitation skills training
• 
  Onboarding and orientation

On successful completion of the program, participants become accredited as Potential Project facilitators. Accreditation is renewed on an annual basis, and requires the trainer to be active in delivery and to participate in ongoing professional development provided by Potential Project. For a newly accredited facilitator this includes completing a series of self-directed learning modules and delivery of a ‘placement practicum’ program.

At the moment we are offering accreditation programs only for our Leadership Solutions, and only bringing on facilitators in targeted geographical regions.

Please note that the accreditation pathway may vary slightly depending on individual situation and organizational needs.

Working with PP

Once accredited as a facilitator, you become a colleague and part of Potential Project family, globally as well as locally.

You will:

• 
  Be fully equipped to sell and deliver our Leadership Solutions programs.
• 
  Have access to PP materials and resources that are constantly being updated and developed.
• 
  Become part of a community of colleagues who are passionate about mindfulness and contributing towards a better world.
• 
  Be part of a global and dynamic organization that is constantly growing and developing, supported by Sales & Growth, Marketing and Operations teams.

Facilitators work on a freelance basis and are not employees of Potential Project. While we may be able to provide facilitators with client leads, facilitators need to be committed to engaging in their own sales work, supported by their Regional Director. Potential Project cannot guarantee income based on accreditation.

If you have any questions or require further information on accreditation and our business model, please speak with your Potential Project contact or email us at [e-mail].
