NAVIGATING THE CNVC CERTIFICATION Process: DURATION, REQUIREMENTS, AND INVESTMENT

Our Certification Process typically spans 3 to 5 years, during which participants are expected to complete 50 days of Nonviolent Communication (NVC) training with Certified Trainers (30 to 50% can be online, depending on region, accessibility, and agreements between Candidate and Assessor). It's worth noting that some individuals may complete the process in a shorter time frame.

The Certification Process involves close collaboration with your Assessor and active participation in offering and receiving NVC trainings. The financial investment for this process varies based on factors such as location, chosen trainers, and resourcefulness in finding funding. Therefore, the cost of the process varies from person to person, depending on individual circumstances.

 

Getting Started:

To embark on the Certification Process, the initial step is to secure 20 days of training with CNVC-Certified Trainers.

Where to Find Trainings:

  • Explore the International Intensive Training (IIT) directly offered by our organization here.
  • Discover online or in-person training options on our website, which our certified trainers provide.
  • You can locate trainers in your area using the filter on this page or by referring to our map showcasing trainers and their locations.
  • Consider searching online for Nonviolent Communication trainers by including your city or country in the search.

Note: Many trainers have their own websites where additional training options are available. Before enrolling in a training, ensure the trainer is certified with CNVC by checking our list of certified trainers.

Further Steps:

  • For a detailed understanding of the CNVC Certification Process, read the comprehensive Certification Preparation Packet (CPP).
  • After reviewing the CPP, initiate contact with one of our Assessors to begin discussing the Certification Process (CPP provides instructions for this). Assessors can be located in different regions and countries.
  • If you're committed to CNVC certification, search for Assessors to enroll yourself as a candidate, keeping in mind that geographical proximity isn't necessary, as many Assessors work with candidates worldwide.
