Trainer Credentials
The delivery tier — who may train practitioners, and who may train the trainers. Both are lifetime credentials; active status requires an active AgileBrain subscription.
The Two Trainer Levels at a Glance
| Certified TrainerDelivers programs — provider-bound | Certified Master TrainerTrains the trainers — apex, internal LIS | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | Delivers AgileBrain certification programs within an Authorized Training Provider. | Trains, assesses and recommends other trainers (certification conferred by the ABGCB); the internal training expertise of LIS. |
| Prerequisite | Professional Practitioner + provider nomination. | Master Practitioner and Certified Trainer (both required — the only level requiring Master). |
| How it's earned | Train-the-Trainer program (3 pathways: 4 / 6 / 8 weeks) + observed delivery + exam. | Conferred by the ABGCB by distinction — a delivery track record + supervised apprenticeship, and/or exceptional contribution. Highly selective; not self-applied. |
| Affiliation | Provider-bound — delivers only within their provider. | Internal LIS — not provider-bound; engaged by LIS on demand. |
