ECD Certification Pathway
Once you’ve completed The ECD Online Masterclass Course and unlocked your first ECD Practitioner badge, mastery beckons. Our ECD Certification Pathway is one emotional journey where you unlock seven distinct badges on your way to Master Elephant Rider status. With each badge, you gain more knowledge and skills to shape emotional culture, growing recognition of your knowledge and the ongoing support and resources of our wonderful ECD Community.
Begin your certification journey >One continuous emotional journey.
You'll quickly lift your game as a Certified Practitioner or Consultant. Your progression through Elephant Rider, Bronze, and Silver fosters growing proficiency and fluency with the ECD. As a culture professional, leader or coach, these first professional steps enable you to build on what you know and share your understanding and skill with others.
You're never alone
From the moment you receive your initial Elephant Rider badge, you’re part of our warm and insightful communities. These dynamic, global groupings bring people with a passion for the ECD together to meet, interact, post learnings and ask and answer questions. You can choose to be how involved you want to be, but you will always be welcome and there will always be opportunities to engage with, and learn alongside, experienced practitioners and consultants as you continue your journey. Being active in our communities will exponentially improve your success and bring new life, value and depth to how you master your emotions.
