Leadership Program

Greater Bay Area, various trainers

Have you found yourself sharing NVC with friends, family and the organizations you are part of, and then discovering a desire to spread it further? This is an intensive 1- or 2-year training for learning to teach NVC. Open to participants who can attend four intensive retreats in Northern California during the year.

Our dream is to nurture the spirit of compassion in people who want to live and teach NVC, to support your leadership development, and ultimately to plant deep roots for the possibility that NVC practice will significantly contribute to social change. The program's goals are to deepen one's practice, to learn and understand more deeply the conceptual and spiritual foundations of NVC, and to practice skills needed for teaching NVC. Graduates and current participants of this program are currently teaching NVC in many parts of the country and in other countries. Fred Sly, a 2002 graduate writes: "I am a much different person for having attended -- much more at ease in my life and in my skills, more flexibility, better capacity to hear and understand -- many gifts for which I am most grateful."

The program includes four weeklong intensive retreats and additional phone, writing, and email activities. Requested experience: significant facility in using NVC, extensive prior training. If attending 4 intensives is more than you are ready or able to commit to, please consider our 9-month Committed NVC Practitioner Program.

NOTE: We are not authorized by CNVC to certify new trainers, participation in the program in no way implies endorsement of you as a future trainer, and is also not a requirement for certification by CNVC.

The 2008 Program is currently underway.

The 2009 program will begin in January. Application information for 2009 will be available in August. Email register@baynvc.org if you would like to receive a packet when it becomes available.
