REQUIREMENTS TO BECOME A TA TRAINER:

• Interview and approval by TA Founder Joeel A. Rivera, M.Ed.
• (WAIVED) $997 licensing fee
• Completion of Professional Life Coach Certification as well as Facilitation and Marketing course (see below)

REQUIRED TRAINING:

TA Trainers will be required to complete the following 2 online courses before being officially recognized as a TA Trainer.

• Professional Life Coach Certification
• Facilitation and Marketing course*, which includes:
   - Facilitation tips (time planning, laser speak, role playing, etc)
   - Strategy for using free or discounted introductory workshops to enroll students
   - Tips for selling from the stage (at free events or for post-training upsells)
   - Tips for marketing your training program (targeting, marketing, joint ventures)
  

*NOTE: TA will select only Trainers who have demonstrated experience facilitating training as well as marketing self-hosted workshops (or similar events) in their local market. It is assumed that approved Trainers are not in need of comprehensive training on how to facilitate and market their trainings. For this reason, the material covered in the Faciitation and Marketing course is meant to be supplemental.

PROGRAM DETAILS:

The Professional Life Coach Certification In-Person Training Program will consist of 16 hours of in-person training, including training, activities, discussions and group practice.

• The program is recommended to be run as a) a 2-day event (8 hours per day) or b) an 8 week program meeting once per week for 2 hours. However, Trainer can choose an alternative schedule.
• Training must be live-in person (no virtual meetings).
  

The Trainer will be provided with a complete curriculum and all materials needed to facilitate the program, including:

• Trainer’s manual with full curriculum and workbook, including recommended timing
• All workbook activities, group discussions, and student practice exercises, with instructions
  
• Full PowerPoint presentation for the entire curriculum, including speaker notes
  
• Each student will also receive a professionally printed workbook with all exercises.
  

PRICING + GETTING PAID

Price Range

Because TA Trainers will be offering training in different markets with different median income levels, there is a range that Trainers are allowed to charge for their training. The official full price of the in-person training is $695. However, you can charge as low as $199 per student in order to price the program appropriately for your target market. (NOTE: If you are planning to train outside of the United States and need to further adjust the pricing, we can discuss this on a case-by-case basis.)
