Certifications

We have two types of certification. Certifications are valid for 3 years, at which time you can renew.

Certified Dialogue Education Practitioner

This certification recognizes that you have demonstrated skills in the Principles and Practices of Dialogue Education and applied them in your own work setting. It honors hard work and a commitment to high quality learning designs and teaching.
