HOW DOES THE MBI TRAIN-THE-TRAINER COURSE WORK?

A time commitment is required to become an MBI Certified Trainer. The online eLearning Lessons must be completed BEFORE attending your first class. These lessons require approximately 15 hours of your time. You can do a little at a time or a lot. It's up to you... it's self-paced. You'll also need some time to practice. And, there are four 4-hour classes. The first three classes are scheduled every other day (Monday/Wednesday/Friday) to give you time in between to review the lessons and practice. Your last class is on the following Monday... and then you're done with the exception of taking the online Certified Trainer Exam. Please Note: You must learn MBI via an Instructor-led course BEFORE attending the Train-the-Trainer classes. It is a mandatory prerequisite for this course. 

 

WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BECOME CERTIFIED?

To become a Certified Trainer, participants will be required to demonstrate a complete understanding of MBI and a proficiency in presenting the training materials. Participants must complete all the eLearning Lessons and Instructor-led classes and pass the exam. Hire Authority will do everything we can to set you up for success, however, the responsibility to become Certified ultimately... is yours.
