The Level 1 training and instructor certification program has 3 main sections:

1. On-line training
2. On site – hands on training to learn techniques and practice teaching in front of live classes
3. Completing the final on-line exams

Instructors first take the core instructor training program. Separate specialty courses covering the core program are offered to provide details and practical advice on teaching in your specific area. These will be available for: Resort Training Staff, Sexologists, Medical Professionals, Wellness and Fitness Professionals.

After completing the core instructor program you can then take courses for each program you want to teach. Currently we are offering a “women’s only” program – “Getting to know yourself” and the “Connecting with your partner – couples massage level 1”.

Additional courses will be available in the next few months. By registering with the system you’ll receive updates as they’re available.

Each course will have a “template” you follow that guides you through each step of teaching the class. By following the program you can provide consistent high quality classes, even if you’re still getting comfortable with public speaking. This includes a guided multi media presentation with photos and video. You also can follow the program via a laptop, phone or printed handouts depending on your situation.

Some programs also include templates for different class scenarios – and for providing training at conventions and trade shows. These also include multi media presentations you can run.

Each year you’ll need to take an on-line refresher course and complete the on-line exam to renew your certification. This will keep you up to date on changes and new innovations in our programs.

Depending on the program, students can optionally access the class on-line to both study before their live class and follow up with questions later. This includes an interactive forum where they can talk together.

The goal of the training program is to allow you to enhance the services you provide to your clients, increase your sales and professional capabilities. Plus, you will be profoundly helping women and couples enjoy life more. Most people only appreciate this after they see what a difference it makes in women’s lives.

We will also be offering an affiliate referral sales program that both you and your students can participate in.
With this program you’ll receive ongoing commissions on sales and referrals you and your students generate. Please note the affiliate referral program is currently only available in the United States but will soon expand to many other countries.

There are 4 levels of hi® Instructor Certification:

1. Level 1 Instructor Certification
2. Level 2 Instructor Certification
3. Senior Instructor Certification
4. Master Instructor Certification

Note: hi® certification classes deal only with techniques and methods for teaching others how to use hi®. They do not offer any training on any type of therapy, counseling, or medical treatment. While some instructors may also be sexologists, therapists, councilors or health care practitioners, their background and certification in those areas is independent of hi® certification. All instructors are required to agree and affirm that they will always conduct themselves in a professional manner that is compliant with the ethics standards of the American Association of Sex Educators, Councilors and Therapists (AASECT). While they must abide by the AASECT ethics standards, this does not imply that they are members of AASECT.

Level 1 Instructor Certification

Level 1 requires successful completion of the core instructor program and the template classes for the “Getting to Know Yourself” Women’s only Class, plus the “Connecting with your Partner” Massage Level 1 Class.
