To improve the significance and value of your Six Seconds certification, we've upgraded the certification renewal process Here are the instructions on how to check your status and renew Why the change? We believe in the value of a community of "practitioners" -- which means practicing... and having a way to see who is involved & current. We've had a renewal process in the certification license for years, but we never had a system for it. So, we interviewed dozens of our cert alumni to find out... and designed this new Renewal process with 2 goals: 1. For you to be stronger, clearer, more powerful in your EQ work 2. To raise the value and meaning of being certified for everyone
What's changed? Up ‘till now, to renew your Six Seconds certification(s), we’ve required 15 hours per year of continuing education + a renewal fee + annual membership. We’ve made a decision to drop the renewal fee and improve the process to focus on being active! As you can see below, renewal now requires: 12 units of Six Seconds Accredited Continuing Education Using 100 credits in a year to demonstrate being active.
We believe this new process will be valuable, and we're committed to making it that way with you and our whole global EQ community.

2. Use of at least 100 credits (Profiles, SEI, VS) during the year to stay activeAnytime during the year, consume at least 100 credits (enough for 10 Brain Talent Profiles, for example) This demonstrates you are actively working with Six Seconds' tools; if you are active in a different way, feel free to email staff@6seconds.org to discuss
Renewal includes free Ally membership in the EQ library ($50 value). Optional Premium membership is additional $280 per year, providing access to many more items in the EQ library (currently almost all only in English). This is available only to people with an active certification. On completion, your profile will show your certifications as active (or inactive) and Active people will appear in our forthcoming interactive map on 6seconds.org (here is a prototype example of the map, but the real one will have a link to your EQ.org profile)
Non RenewalIf you do not renew, your online profile will be marked INACTIVE and your Tools account and certified library access will be blocked.
To renew an INACTIVE certification, you will need to re-do the eLearning related to your course (free of charge) plus use at least 100 credits.
If your account is INACTIVE for 24 months, your profile will be marked LAPSED, and you will have to re-attend the course to renew your certification (at a discounted registration fee). |
