Join Roxy Manning for a free Q&A on becoming an NVC trainer on October 29, at 11:00 AM ET.

Called to Teach NVC?
Wondering whether becoming a certified trainer the next step in your NVC journey?
Perhaps you’ve been studying NVC for years and want to deepen your practice. Maybe you’re already facilitating groups and you’re curious about how certification could support your growth and well-being. Or perhaps you feel called to share NVC in ways that help create more connection, understanding, and belonging in the communities you care about.
Drawing on decades of experience teaching NVC across cultures, identities, and communities, Roxy brings a deep commitment to personal transformation, collective healing, and creating environments where everyone’s humanity matters.
During this session, we will explore:
- The purpose and vision of CNVC certification
- Key requirements, competencies, and expectations
- Time, financial, and learning commitments
- How certification supports personal growth, embodiment, and development as a facilitator
- Ways NVC can contribute to more equitable, inclusive, and life-serving relationships and communities
This is more than a conversation about certification. It is an opportunity to reflect on your own development, your aspirations for sharing NVC, and the contribution you want to make in the world.
