Will I be able to teach certification course?
The main emphasis of the Level One Aromatherapy Teacher Training certification program is on community education. This is by far the largest area of growth for aromatherapy education.
The Level One Aromatherapy Teacher Training Certificate course has been designed to teach individuals how to create community education. You will leave being able to teach the "Essential Wellness" and "Essential Therapeutics" courses along with the ability to design and teach 2 - 3 hour presentations to a full day class.
This course also serves as the foundations for all instructors to be certified with the School for Aromatic Studies. Our Level Two Aromatherapy Teacher Training certification program will teach students how to teach certification classes. We feel that a year of teaching 2-3 hour classes and 8 hour classes will provide the teacher with the necessary foundation and skills to then move into teaching full certification courses.
