A student may pursue Certificated Courses of Study, in preparation to become a Professional Practitioner or Minister in the United Centers for Spiritual Living.
The student enrolls in a Certificated Course at a member spiritual community and takes the required courses as listed below. It is highly recommended that the student does not take courses concurrently, and the Foundations course must be completed before taking other courses.
During the period from November 2007 to September 2009, your community can choose to offer curriculum from any of our certificated courses for credit toward practitioner study.
After September 2009, the new course curriculum will go into effect. It is expected that anyone who is a beginning student and enrolls at the Foundational level in the fall of 2009 will be taking a minimum of two full years of study before entering practitioner study. Please note that in the fall of 2009, new requirements will be The Essential Ernest Holmes and an added elective course.
In the fall of 2009 and 2010, we will be accepting the same requirement of course preparation that has been in effect for the last 10 years. You may choose to substitute the new curriculum for the older courses or to offer additional courses at your community. All the courses on this list are certificated for credit. Students entering Practitioner Studies in 2011 will take their courses from the following list: |
