WEEKLY TRAINING PROGRAM
Below we provide you with information regarding our training program in Focusing in the weekly format which is oriented both to Help Professionals, as well as to the general public.
The course takes place once a week in meetings of 2 hours. Each of the levels (from 1 to 4) has a duration of 8 encounters in total.
Our School offers 3 alternatives :
Training, practice and deepening in the technique.
National and/or international certification (“The International Focusing Institute” of New York) .
Intermediate recognition in “Accompaniment in Focusing”. (PFP) of international validity (“The International Focusing Institute” of New York) .
If your goal is to obtain the certification, the path is to accredit a total of approximately 200 teaching hours.
(theory + practice + presentation of individual works)
Possible ways to credit hours:
Hours of training in weekly classes (continuous multilevel).
Training hours of the Intensive Training program (optional) (see below).
Hours of elective modules (see below) .
Hours of individual sessions (a minimum of 6 hours is required).
Hours of practice, participating in our spaces "Open Space" for students, and "Open Space" open to the public.
In the case in which the Certification is not your objective and if you want to train yourself in the accompaniment with the technique, you will be able to access an Intermediate Recognition (PFP) , which will be achieved once approximately 120 hours have been completed, and reaching the standards required for the PFP
In case your goal is Certification, go to the next page and read “Level 5 / Certification level for all training formats”
