Experienced practitioners can expect to take 8-9 months within The Tribe. Alternatively they are eligible for the Certification Fast Track option, which takes place over 6 months.

No. Tribe members taking the self-study option can take as long as they need to complete the program. Fast Track members do not need to complete all 3 phases within the 6 month period either, and can submit assessments after the program ends.
