We require 100% participation in order to become a Certified Jai Parenting Coach. In the case of inevitable life circumstances, we do offer the ability to watch the class recording and submit reflections to count towards your class participation. That being said, all students are required to attend a minimum of 80% of their Live Classes in order to become certified.

The live classes are essential to you achieving the capability and confidence as a coach. It’s where you practice, ask questions and get feedback from your Jai Master Trainer. 

Many! We believe with our whole hearts, that there will come a day when parenting coaches are as common place in a family’s support system as pediatricians, which means we’ve only scratched the surface of the opportunity to do this vital work. 

Some of our graduates are using their certification as a side gig, while homeschooling, raising young children, or working in a different career. Others have created full-time income through their practice. We are proud that many of our graduates are authors, leaders and influencers in the Peaceful Parenting space. 

Here’s some of their businesses to inspire you to see what is possible!

When you graduate from the Jai Institute for Parenting you are being certified by Jai to use our materials and coach using our proprietary methodology. 

The accrediting body for life coaches is the International Coach Federation, or ICF. We are NOT an ICF accredited coach training program as we do not qualify because of our specialization in parent coaching, vs. comprehensive life coaching. 

We could pursue accreditation as a specialty program, however, this would only be useful to already certified ICF life coaches. Because this would make our program more expensive (most ICF certified programs are in the range of $8,000-12,000 for tuition) we are not pursuing this at this time. 

Listen to our CEO, Kiva Schuler speak about it here.

Since we are committed to the small-group training model, we have new groups starting 2-4 times a month. To find an upcoming cohort that will work for your schedule, fill out the application and your admissions advisor will help you find a group that works for you!
