If you have been enjoying SoulCollage® for yourself, then you understand the power of this process.
You know . . .
That each card depicts a certain aspect of the self
That you are one person with many parts
That this is an empowering tool for self-understanding
That the true magic of SoulCollage® happens when we read our cards
The Call
Do you feel called to share this experience, this powerful tool with others? Or perhaps you desire a deep dive into the breadth and depth of this revealing process. Either way, the SoulCollage® Facilitator Training is for anyone who wants to learn more about themselves and facilitate SoulCollage® for self-discovery in groups and with individuals. You don’t need any qualifications to take the SoulCollage® Training, but you must have a desire to share this experience and you must complete the prerequisites below. The prerequisites will be without a doubt the best homework you've ever been assigned.
SoulCollage® complements many other healing and self-understanding modalities.
The primary focus of a SoulCollage® Training is to teach participants to be SoulCollage® Facilitators, so this is not a SoulCollage® retreat or workshop, even though in both settings a participant may experience deep personal process. We expect that you are taking the Training because SoulCollage® has been meaningful to you in your own process, and you are eager to share SoulCollage®. There will be time for making cards.
After completing the Training, participants receive a Certificate of Completion conferring the right to use the name "SoulCollage®" in the title of their groups or workshops and to call themselves "SoulCollage® Facilitators." This SoulCollage® Facilitator Training is required in order to call yourself a SoulCollage® Facilitator and your groups SoulCollage® Groups.
The SoulCollage(R) Facilitator Certificate of Completion will connect you with other SoulCollagers and trained Facilitators in your region and all over the world. We are a thriving community through our vibrant World of SoulCollage® on-line platform and our in-person gatherings.
All bodies, from all backgrounds, regardless of ethnicity, gender, race, sexual orientation or ability are welcome!

By registering for this Training, you agree to complete these prerequisites. Your Trainers and your Training colleagues will appreciate that you have completed the basics before you come. On the rare occasions when people come unprepared, they get less out of the experience and the peer group processes are less constructive.
PLEASE NOTE:
SoulCollage® originally was designed and evolved as an adult activity. Unless you are a licensed clinician or teacher working with children in schools or are under the direct supervision of teachers working within schools, SoulCollage® Facilitators are advised not to work with collage and emotional expression with children who are not their own children.
Schedule
The Training schedule, comprising 28 hours of instruction, will begin on Thursday, October 17th at 9:00 a.m. and finish Sunday, October 20th at 5:00 p.m. There will be a one-hour break for lunch each day from 12:30 - 1:30. Each day will start at 9:00 a.m. and finish at 5:00 p.m.
You must be on time and attend all sessions to receive your Certificate of Completion.
Please note that the Training is fast-paced and we cover a lot of territory in a relatively short period of time. It is not intended to be a retreat. Please come well rested and prepared to learn. This Training has been condensed to make it as affordable as possible, so every minute in each session is essential.
