Graduation Requirements
"Your intelligence is always with you. overseeing your body, even though you may not be aware of its work . . . Your intelligence is marvelously intimate. It's not in fromt of you or behind, or to the left or to the right."
- Jelaluddin Rumi (transl. Coleman Barks)
It is the aim of the Trust to train highly skilled and caring practitioners who have integrated key aspects of biodynamic craniosacral work prior to graduation.
- Graduation is dependent upon the development of palpatory and therapeutic skills and fitness to practice to a professional standard. This standard is monitored by continual assessment and the satisfactory completion of all course work
- All homework and practice assignments must be completed on time to a satisfactory standard
- A practical assessment occurs towards the end of the training and a written examination must also be passed
- With a training of this nature, regular attendance is essential. Full attendance of the seminars should be aimed for, but in the event of any absence students will be required to make up for any missed work. This may involve taking a private tutorial with an approved teacher (at your own expense). A minimum of 80% class attendance is required for graduation.
- All mandatory hours at the Teaching Clinic must be satisfactorily completed prior to graduation.
