TRE Certification Training

Australian TRE Training

The next intake for the Australian TRE Global Certification Training Program (GCTP) will begin with Module 1 on May 4th  & provide you with a qualification to teach TRE as a stand-alone technique or modality. There are no prerequisite qualifications to apply for the GCTP training.

Attending a 1-day introductory workshop less than 12 months before applying for the GCTP is a prerequisite with a list of upcoming workshops available here

Completion of the Australian Global Certification Training Program (GCTP) provides an internationally recognised qualification as a ‘Certified TRE Provider’ enabling you to teach TRE professionally to individuals and groups.

For trainees with additional qualifications – in addition to qualifying you to teach TRE as a stand alone technique the training also enables you to use TRE in support of your existing treatment modalities.

For trainees without additional qualifications– the certification enables you to teach TRE for general health & wellbeing to populations without any major medical or mental health conditions only.

More information about the GTCP is outlined below.

If you are interested in applying for the GCTP please sign up to the TRE Australia newsletter here & email lead trainer Emiline Duncan at admin@thenuturefoundation to express your interest.
