The path to CNVC certification: what it is and where to start

What is CNVC certification?

CNVC is the Center for Nonviolent Communication, the international organisation that offers a certification process for people who wish to become a Certified Trainer of Nonviolent Communication. To become a certification Candidate, you need 20 days of training. The hours you follow with me, count towards those hours.

Who considers certification?

People who have followed several courses, who feel NVC has become part of how they live and who feel drawn to share it with others. In my experience, people spend up to several years learning NVC before deciding to approach certification.

How can you find out more?

I offer a free, interactive information session on Zoom. In it I share my own journey through certification, explain the different steps of the process and answer your questions. The session is recorded, so you are welcome to register even if you cannot attend live. Look at the page for the CNVC certification info session.

What if you just want to keep practising?

You do not need to pursue certification to go deeper. For those who simply love NVC and want ongoing support, community and accountability, I am developing the year long Learning Community. It is meant both for people walking toward certification and for people who want to deepen their NVC practice in relationships, work, parenting, teaching or everyday life.

Where do you begin?

1. Build a base through a Foundation Course, Level 2 and Level 3. See how to learn NVC.
2. Join the information session to ask your questions.
3. Stay in practice with a community, whichever way you choose.
