Progression to Level 2
After receiving formal Level 1 teaching authorization, applicants independently deliver at least three complete Level 1 courses and retain feedback and reflection records before applying for Level 2 instructor preparation.
Level 2 course instructor
Six in-person training days and three months of online teaching development deepen demonstrations, practice observation, responsive feedback and group learning. The detailed schedule is announced with each cohort.
After passing the training assessment, candidates deliver at least one complete three-day Level 2 course, comprising twenty-four actual teaching hours and all core modules. Formal authorization follows JourneyWithin’s evaluation.
Teaching evaluation and renewal
Placement requires a complete course, rather than an accumulation of unrelated teaching segments. Evaluation considers curriculum accuracy, learning design, facilitation, feedback and reflection.
Teaching authorization is reviewed every two years based on teaching records, feedback, reflection and curriculum updates. An additional demonstration may be used to confirm readiness after an extended period without teaching.
Renewal and developmentTeaching resources and support
Instructors use the current JourneyWithin curriculum and supporting materials. Teaching development connects curriculum analysis, practice and feedback; additional observation is arranged where it supports a specific learning need.
