What does the training qualify me to do?
If you would like to have free rein to present every aspect of the Brain Gym programme, then becoming a Brain Gym 101 Instructor will hand you the key. When you complete the Brain Gym 101 Instructor Graduate Mentoring Programme, you will be able to expand your delivery content from short seminars and talks (Educational Kinesiology Consultant) to encompass the Brain Gym 101 foundation course and its many tools and simple, effective procedures.
The training consists of supervised, mentored teaching practice alongside an experienced Brain Gym 101 Instructor. Through staged participation in teaching the course, you will culminate in a full co-teach and be evaluated on this for accreditation as a Brain Gym 101 Instructor. The training process is usually accomplished over two courses. You are encouraged to provide your own students for the accreditation course (usually the second co-teach), as there is a profit-sharing arrangement in place for this.
This key Instructor training is also a passport to a further vista of Instructor trainings, including courses on the professional training track and other courses in the approved Edu-K curriculum.
