110+ Hour, 11 Week November Training
Previous Village Deathcare Citizen Courses have been a nine week 50+ hour certificate training. For November the course is an 11 week training with an expected time commitment of approximately 10 hours per week making this a 110+ hour certificate training. We will go deeper into ancestral studies, cover an introduction to home funerals, psychedelics in end of life care and work through Anne-Marie's new book in addition to the previous content of the Village Deathcare Citizen training. There are four books required for this course which total approximately $56. This course is intentionally held over the holidays because it is a time of great pressure, anxiety and also tenderness. There are assignments specific to holiday examination and no break during the 11 weeks.
Time Commitment and Classwork for November
This session is dedicated to those who truly wish to dive deep into the work of death and dying. The time commitment will be held and agreed upon in advance. The content that you share for your weekly submissions must be thorough and in-depth (you do not need to be a genius! You just need to put in a sincere effort.) so that your classmates can truly benefit from each individual's contribution in the course. You'll be expected to hold a meditation log (10 minutes per day).
50+ Hour Nine Week Spring Session
Not everyone has time to dedicate a full 10 hours per week to deathcare training so the 50+ hour, nine week certificate training will return in the spring of 2022. The nine week course does not mandate a meditation log (though mindfulness practice is at the core of the training), ancestral studies are a bit lighter, there is no home funeral training and psychedelics in EOL care are not studied. Weekly time commitment is in the six hour range. The nine week has requires two less books required and the donation amount is $400 (with Fair Exchange options).
Both Courses Are Life Changing
You cannot go wrong with either course! They both are an in-depth training in death and dying.
Step Two- Fair trade
