Certification Training Process
This process combines live and self-paced learning. The small group mentoring classes, Teach Back Days, and final class are held via Zoom. Certification is based on successful completion of the Teach Backs and participation in all the group classes.
Small Group Classes: Attend five small group mentoring classes with 5 other participants and a HeartMath® Senior Facilitator that are scheduled every week. The first class is 2 hours, the remaining 4 classes are 90-minutes. In this phase participants will use the Study Guide to help draw out key elements in the program. This includes a close look at the program Trainer Notes, supportive documents and module videos to understand some of the basic science and concepts of the HeartMath System. An important aspect is learning and applying the coherence techniques in your own daily life to fully understand their application. Between the small group mentoring, participants are highly encouraged to meet together to discuss main learnings, applications and practice presenting the material to each other. This phase is very important in preparation for the two Teach Back days. Attendance is required.
Teach Back Days: Prepare for and present two, 30-minute assigned modules to your mentoring group over two full days. Each participant and the Teach Back Facilitator will give constructive feedback after each presentation to support and deepen the learning experience. The Teach Backs offer an even deeper dive into the program material and facilitation of it, while at the same time, allowing the Facilitators to assess the ability to present the program content and practices effectively. Attendance is required.
Attend a half-day Final Class: Attend a half-day Final Class to expand your learning. Attendance is required.
Attend a final debrief: Attend a final debrief with your designated HeartMath representative.
Scope of Practice
The “Scope of Practice” for a HeartMath® Certified Trainer to deliver the Coherence Advantage™ (CA) program is defined as using presentation slides or other forms of interactive media in delivering workshops, presentations and facilitating groups of any size in person or online. The CA program is designed for working with any type of group. The scope of practice does not include the authority to certify others. Only HeartMath headquarters and it’s officially designated partners have the authority to certify trainers.
Training Teams: If you work with teams, and are looking for a certification program designed for team training, the Activating the Heart of Teams™ Certification introduces the knowledge, concepts and skill sets for building team coherence.
Post-Certification Community of Practice: Upon successful completion of the program, graduates are eligible to join the HeartMath Community of Practice. To help ensure your success as a HeartMath certified professional, the first year fee is discounted 90% (normally $295 per year).
Access to the community includes the option to list yourself in the public Certified Professional Directory and a 25% discount on product purchases (items that are not already on sale).
This training was well researched, backed by Peer-Reviewed Studies, presented in a highly professional manner, with expert trainers who were able to address a wide range of questions. I really liked that they all practice what they teach.

Listen to what Dr. Patricia Van Pelt says about her recent experience of the program, formerly known as Resilience Advantage™
Tremendously comprehensive – from pre-mentoring calls …quality and quantity of content … exceptional value and a hugely gratifying experience. Science and research …gives undeniable credibility … to live whole-heartedly…the most impactful, and hopeful gift we can share with each other.

WOW!!!
I went in expecting to learn the Resilience Advantage Workshop which I did, but I came out with so much more. I came out with a deeper understanding of how important self-care is for medical professionals and with a deep passion to deliver these tools to them. Thank you so much.

Beyond the Best!
The training was truly awesome, every moment, from the Resilience Advantage walk through, to the teachbacks to the “how to market” session — all was energized by the very visible and contagious heart power of the trainers, and by the participants, whose heart power was potentiated and unleashed.

Versatile applications
Everyone needs emotional tools to deal with stress or anxiety. I am a HeartMath coach, and a trainer. Horses, Drumming, and Theraputic Art are the methods I combine with the HeartMath techniques. HeartMath is versatile adding to any method of coaching. I say, “I can’t send a horse home with my clients, especially if they are service members heading back to Afghanistan, but I can send them off with techniques so they can not let stress or upset fog their thinking.

Outstanding Training & Phenominal Resources
Heartmaths Master Trainers are well trained and pick up on the subtle nuiances of our presentations, fine tuned our content and expanded our knowledge. Conducting the teachbacks in smaller breakout groups produced a safe, intimate environment. All the participants were phenominal individuals each bringing there own unique experience to the table which enriched the experience. I’d recommend anyone considering this course to “just do it” – its an experience you’ll treasure for life

Amazing
This is an amazing training. It is very well organized and I felt at the end like I was prepared to start training right away. The subject matter however, is the real star of the program – and being in a room with a group of strangers who were joining in heart coherence was indescribably. It proved the lessons of the training in a way no book or video could have. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a way to make a difference in their lives and in the world.
