Moving Beyond:
An Enneagram Training and Certification Program
This 84-hour training and certification program, done in two distinct modules, provides a comprehensive Enneagram education as well as specialized content regarding the ins and outs of bringing the Enneagram to communities outside the traditional reach of Enneagram trainings. This unique blend of knowledge and practice provides for the graduate the needed experience to bring quality Enneagram content to those they teach.
About This Training
Description
This train-the-trainer program seeks to bring excellent Enneagram content to traditionally under-resourced communities by training people connected, culturally or through employment, directly to a community in the hopes of extending the life-changing potential held within this tool.
Objectives
- Expand the introduction and use of the Enneagram into more diverse communities.
- Flattening barriers of engagement for a community with the equipping of culturally aligned trainers.
- Create an ongoing support group for trainers certified through the Moving Beyond program to share new learning, new training opportunities, and new venues.
- Promote the pioneering work and benefits of bringing the Enneagram to non-traditional groups.
Upcoming Training
Module One: Understanding the Enneagram From the “Inside Out”
September 3 through November 12, 2025 (44 Hours)
**Project due December 17, 2025**
Module Two: The WORK: Using the Enneagram for Change and Growth
January 7 through March 11, 2026 (40 Hours)
**Project due April 15, 2026**
Program Format
During our 21 weeks together the cohort will gather online (Zoom) for two hours weekly for instruction, discussion, and group interaction around the week’s content received a week prior using the online platform Thinkific (asynchronous). Module One gives the learner a deep understanding of both Type and Instinctual Bias knowledge while Module Two takes the learner into the many ways to use this knowledge to support and guide growth in problem-solving and more effective daily living. This second module also sheds light on the unique challenges and opportunities that come with pushing the boundaries of traditional Enneagram into new communities.
Each module will require participants to interact with the material presented ensuring they have done the work they will be asking others to do. Following the eleven weeks of Module One each participant will recruit a “WORK partner” interested in doing their own Enneagram WORK. Trainees project will be to introduce their WORK partner to the Enneagram and take them on a deep dive into their Type and Subtype. This work partner will stay with the trainee into Module Two. Throughout Module Two, as the trainee learns the different ways to use the Enneagram for change and growth, they will teach these same practices to the WORK partner. The project for Module Two will be to develop and present a three-hour (minimum) workshop.
