Logosynthesis® Certification Regulations

2 Certification as a ‘Instructor in Logosynthesis®’

2.1 Certification and licence
Certification as an ‘Instructor in Logosynthesis®’ entitles the holder to offer the Introductory
Seminar ‘Self-Coaching with Logosynthesis®’ as well as the open topic seminars.

Certification
An Instructor Meeting is offered at regular intervals for the training and certification of all Practi-
tioners who would like to give the official Logosynthesis self-coaching seminar and the open
topic seminars. The meeting can also be attended by Practitioners-in-training who are Basic
members and wish to acquire the Practitioner title in the foreseeable future. The meeting offers
substantial added value for Practitioner certification. The Instructor Meeting is organised by the
LIA. The seminar costs include the licence fee of CHF 90/€ 70, the material for the announcement
and the use of the.pptx file of the introductory seminar.

License renewal
Certified instructors must renew their license every 3 years by attending appropriate events or-
ganized by the LIA or country organizations, or by having themselves updated and supervised by
a supervisor authorised by the LIA. The license renewal is included in the seminar costs.

Advertising on the LIA website

As Professional Members the Instructors can publish their respective offers on the LIA website at
www.logosynthesis.internationel/calender. The link, via which the offers can be entered, can be
found in the Instructor-Login area of the website:
www.logosynthesis.international/instructors-login.

LIA Instructor meeting

The instructor meeting organized by the LIA usually consists of two to three parts:

1st day: Instructor certification

This day allows new Practitioners to obtain the licence required to give the Introductory Seminar
‘Self-Coaching with Logosynthesis®’. Instructors who attended a certification workshop more
than 5 years ago are also recommended to visit this seminar as the content is continually im-
proved. The seminar’s content is presented alongside didactic and organisational elements.
At the same time, an advanced training day can be offered for existing instructors

2nd day: Evaluation and development and license renewal

This day allows participants to exchange their experiences of the self-coaching seminar and other
open sessions with other participants. The group discusses current didactic, marketing and or-
ganisational topics and new developments in Logosynthesis are presented. This day is compul-
sory for all Instructors who wish to retain their licences to present the Introductory Seminar ‘Self-
Coaching with Logosynthesis®’.

Version 1.11.2019 LIA – Logosynthesis International Association www.logosynthesis.international 8 / 17

Logosynthesis® Certification Regulations

Possible 3rd day: Presentation of an open seminar

This day involves the presentation of a new, open seminar that Instructors can give to wider au-
diences who have no prior knowledge of Logosynthesis. The open topic seminars are intended to
engage audiences who are not primarily interested in Logosynthesis through other topics such as
‘Money’, ‘Time’ and ‘Procrastination’. Logosynthesis is the main tool used in the seminars, and
participants often end up expressing a wish to find out more about the method through a self-
coaching seminar or coaching session.

Alternative certification as an ‘Instructor in Logosynthesis®’

Instructor Meetings are only currently offered within German-speaking countries. The following
certification options exist outside of these areas:

• Option 1: The candidate submits an application to the LIA and is introduced to the seminar
by an experienced Instructor. The introduction will take place at the candidate’s own cost
and should involve him/her participating and assisting with the teaching of a self-coaching
seminar. The candidate will receive the relevant materials for a licence fee of CHF 90/€ 70.
The LIA will grant permission for the candidate to give the seminar once the supporting
Instructor has given their recommendation.
• Option 2: The candidate submits an application to the LIA and is introduced to the seminar
by an experienced Instructor. The introduction will take place at the candidate’s own cost
and during a 2-hour session. The candidate will receive the relevant materials for a licence
fee of CHF 90/€ 70. The LIA will grant permission for the candidate to give the seminar once
the supporting Instructor has given their recommendation.
Authorised instructors for alternative certification for the self-coaching seminar are:
• Ernst Aebi: German, French
• Esther Borra: German, English, French
• Trish North: English
• Mary O'Donoghue: English
• Fabio Pierotti: Italian

structor authorised by the LIA. In doing so, he/she submits his/her lesson plan to the instructor in
advance. The supervision costs amount to CHF 180 or € 145 per hour. The certification costs of
CHF 90 or € 70 must be paid to the LIA.

the complete range of current models and methods is demonstrated, experienced and
practised.
3. Working conferences: Multi-day seminars that include the elements of both other Master
Class types and concretise additional group-dynamic aspects of Logosynthesis.

The further education to become a Master Practitioner in Logosynthese® takes place within the

Logosynthesis’ deeper levels. MPL candidates will meet in groups of 3, or preferably 4, on a regu-
lar basis outside of the seminars and for 4-6 meetings per year. The group sessions will take place
in person or online. This exchange aids mutual feedback and complements the learning experi-
ence.

satisfied with the MPL candidate’s personal and professional qualities. The written recommenda-
tion includes a summary of the MPL candidate’s achieved learning objectives and learning experi-

the MPL course. The content structure of this assessment is set out in the appendix.

quium dates and locations. Colloquia are held in English or the local language. Two experts are
selected by the certification committee from the mentors list, to conduct the colloquium. The ba-
sis for the colloquium will be the written reports from the MPL candidate and mentor. The collo-
quium consists of a discussion with the goal of assessing the MPL candidate. The candidate may
reject the proposed experts and the MPL candidate can request an interpreter. The experts de-
cide on the MPL candidate’s certification.
The colloquium fees and experts’ remuneration are CHF 650.-/ € 500.-.
