CORE COMMUNICATION™ is a great tool for singles or personal coaching. The curriculum teaches the same valuable communication skills to people for use in areas other than with their significant other. CORE COMMUNICATION™ enhances participants’ knowledge and skill in communication empowering them to:

• Develop Greater Choice in How They Relate to Others
• Talk and Listen More Effectively
• Make Better Decisions
• Resolve Issues and Conflict Better – Both Inside Themselves and With Others
• Coach or Facilitate Others in Resolving Issues or Conflicts

These skills and the increased interpersonal competence will allow participants to:

• Create More Satisfying Relationships
• Expand Their Options for Meeting and Handling Personal Challenges
• Lower Their Levels of Stress
• Improve Productivity When a Task Involves Other People

Additionally, participants will be better personally and professionally at:

• Influencing
• Negotiating
• Mediating
• Counseling

Both programs are designed to be delivered in either group or private settings and over multiple weeks or in a 2-day workshop.

Professional instructors charge an average of:

• $80/private session for couples or individuals. Materials not included.
• $50/session for group classes per couple (or individual for CORE). Materials not included.
• $300 per couple (or individual for CORE) for an intensive 2-day training. Material may be included.

Many churches and other ministries offer COUPLE COMMUNICATION™ at low or no cost. You are free to set the pricing for your facilitation of the program, as it will be dictated by the work that you are trying to accomplish and your target audience.

​

Again, completing the 2-day Instructor Training authorizes you to instruct BOTH the COUPLE and CORE COMMUNICATION™ programs. You will have the choice to receive EITHER a COUPLE COMMUNICATION™ instructor manual or a CORE COMMUNICATION™ instructor manual as part of your training.  If you want to teach both programs, you will simply need to purchase the other manual as well.
