TEACHER TRAINING OPTIONS

While attending an in-person training over a long weekend is always recommended, our Remote Teacher Trainings are an effective alternative during this time of COVID.

​

After completing an application form and being accepted and after payment has been received, trainees will be assigned a supervisor who will e-mail or mail the 10 sessions individually. The trainee will also be mailed additional materials they will use during the course.

Each session is divided into two sections: 
  • Section 1 includes reading material for the topics included in the Session.
  • Section 2 includes charting exercises and worksheets.

Upon completion of each session, the trainee will mail or email the session back to the supervisor who will correct it and send the next session.  Beginning with Session 6, the trainee is able to begin teaching couples the Billings Method™ as part of the supervised practicum.  Trainees will be expected to work with a minimum of 6 clients/couples until they no longer need follow-up. At that time, with the request of the supervisor, the trainee will be mailed a final charting exam. Successful completion of the final charting exam and the successful supervised practicum will give the trainee the status of certified teacher for three years.
