Safe Conversations® Training : Immersion September

SAFE CONVERSATIONS FACILITATOR TRAINING

Welcome to Level One: Immersion

You are about to set out on an exciting journey to become a trained Safe Conversations Leader. Level One is a deep dive into theory, tools and impact of this powerful relational methodology. You’ll join Founders Harville Hendrix and Helen LaKelly Hunt to transform your own relational practice, because we believe you must Be it to Lead it.

Whether you plan to become a Safe Conversations Facilitator (Level Two) or a Safe Conversations Workshop Trainer (Level Three), Level One Immersion is where you’ll begin your journey. 

About Level One: Immersion 

You will have 30 days to complete Level One, a hybrid, part-digital part-live Immersive training. Level One begins on the first day of the calendar month, and you’ll be engaged in a 3-part training process: 

1 – Self-Guided Learning 

Watch 15 content modules presented by Drs. Harville Hendrix and Helen LaKelly Hunt which explore the theory, ideas and practice of Safe Conversations. After each module, you’ll complete a personal assignment to integrate Safe Conversations in your life and relationships. Be sure to have a journal or notebook ready, as well as a printer to access the course materials for every segment. 

Though each segment is different, you can project 60-90 minutes learning and assignment time for each. Many assignments include applying the skills in your relationships. We hope you’ll extend these practices throughout the course.

2 – Weekly Cohort Meetings

You and your training peers will meet on Zoom with Senior Safe Conversations Mentors to discuss the learnings and practice Dialogue. This interactive meeting will include Q&A and sharing, and it will be focused on bringing Safe Conversations to life. Network, collaborate and co-create with Trainees from all industries, all over the world, in these 90-minute online gatherings. 

3 – 30-Day Zero Negativity Challenge

Committing to Zero Negativity is the foundation for building a lasting Safe Conversations practice. For the duration of Level One Immersion, you’ll be challenged to monitor your progress toward Zero Negativity – in all your interactions.

Download the Zero Negativity packet in the Course Materials above. Starting Day 1 of the month, you’ll receive a Zero Negativity email every day to help you monitor your personal Zero Negativity practice.  Harville and Helen have prepared inspirational (and educational) quotes to keep you on track. Consider enrolling others to practice alongside you. Accountability is everything, and it’ll pay off in big ways!

GETTING STARTED!

You will receive an email on the first day of next month announcing that your course is unlocked and you’re ready to get started. Attend the video segments at your own pace, assuming roughly 1-2 hours per segment plus real-life application in between. Your Weekly Cohort meetings will track your progress, and support your questions and reflections as you move through the training.

Look for your first Zero Negativity email on day 1 of your training. This will be your daily practice to monitor your growth as a SC Leader.

At the end of Level One

Your final Cohort meeting will mark the off-ramp from Level One and will get you ready to enter Level Two: Training to Become a SC Facilitator. You will receive a Certificate of Completion of Level Two at that time.
