    • When recertifying, Meghan reserves the right to request additional time to demonstrate the necessary changes.

In order to pass, there is a knowledge check and a form check.  Safety is first in mind, which is why the CDC and other organizations (NCOA, etc.) recommend us, so it is up to the Master Trainer to ensure you have the key pieces to keep the Program Safe and Effective.

In order to complete the process after passing, there is a final fee:

Board Certification Instructor fee is not paid until after the workshop to TCHI (not Master Trainer) to allow the name to be posted on the website, so the Institute and employers know you are current on certifications
