It helps you join the Simplicity Parenting movement in a bigger way, helping parents and families live simpler, more connected lives. And it enables you to generate additional revenue for your family by offering Simplicity Parenting Parent Gatherings in your community. 

No. It is helpful if you've already done the Soul of Discipline Home Practice Guide, but it's not at all necessary. Everything you need is included in the Group Leader Training.

Only if you want to start offering Discipline and Guidance Parent Gatherings in your community. There is additional discipline information in the Group Leader Training compared to the Home Practice Guide, but we don't feel it's enough to justify the additional expense. 

• 5+ hours of video modules containing instruction by Kim John Payne
• A detailed curriculum for delivering a series of groups for parents in your community
• Instruction in group dynamics, group leader skills, and how to deliver the material and the curriculum
• Support materials for Marketing and Outreach.
• Access to the Simplicity Community and Coaches Forum.

We recommend that you check fees charged in your community for yoga classes, as a comparison guide, but we suggest an average $100 for the group gatherings, adjusted according to your unique community. 

Participants are also required to purchase their own student materials for a nominal fee. We'll provide you a link to share with them. 

Indefinitely.

The training is not approved for CEU’s by any particular institution. But often participants who need CEU’s can apply to their accrediting agency and we can support their application.

As you can imagine, it varies a lot. Some people have been up and running within the month, while others have taken their time due to the space they have available in their lives.

In either case, especially if you are a newcomer to the field of parent support, it may take several years to build a niche for your offerings in your community. If you already work with parents and families, this work will enhance and maybe transform what you offer.

Please check with your local community business advisors about tax and other issues so that you build your business in a fiscally responsible manner.

Yes. The learning materials are accessible through our website and include access to video modules for self-paced individual study. But please note that all the materials are in English.
