PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
In the Celebrant Circle, we consider ‘Professional Development’ to be a vital part of every successful celebrant’s toolkit. Inner Circle members have access to FREE, regular monthly P.D. opportunities.
All of our sessions are informative, targeted, enlightening, and (very importantly) a lot of fun.
We run a huge variety of options covering everything from business marketing to ceremony design and delivery – and a whole lot in between! With sessions delivered by guest speakers or the in-house training team. Our P.D. is continually evolving, with our members’ requirements and requests at the forefront of all that we do.
When it comes to training or membership organisations, we never forget you have a choice.
So let us help you to get your Celebrant business fit and fired up, ready for 2024…and beyond!
