this program is

designed to help you deepen your Enneagram knowledge and skill to help other people in life or at work. This program is not only for coaches, therapists, teachers, and other professionals, but it is also for leaders of all kinds of teams (corporate or not), as well as people interested in better applying this system in parenting or with family and friends.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The program is comprised of three courses, coaching sessions with a program supervisor, as well as assignments, supplemental online courses and content (including The Enneagram Masterclass), assessments, Skill-Up Seminars, Learning Labs, and a robust online learning community.

After completing the program, students will have the option to renew at a highly discounted rate to continue accessing Skill-Up Seminars, Learning Labs, supplemental online content, and in-program discussions.

Please Note: This is a rigorous program that values you as a professional and a person on your own inner development trajectory. Once you start the program and your supervising coach gets to know you a bit more, they may identify areas of growth (in knowledge, skill set, or personal work) that you may need to do additional work in order to be the best professional you can be. This means that your coach may assign you new coursework, extra assignments, or even recommend therapy before they determine you are set to be certified.

WHAT DOES MY REGISTRATION INCLUDE?

When students sign up, they automatically get access to a learning platform that contains a community feature, self-guided online coursework, including video and audio lessons, and additional written materials exclusive to CP Professional Certification students. Students will also be invited to attend Learning Labs—live, supervised meetings in which they can workshop their assignments with other students, and Skill-Up Seminars—live teaching seminars by Enneagram professionals on a specific professional development topic followed by a brief Q&A session and optional break-outs—at no additional cost. Students will also be required to sign up for courses and schedule private coaching sessions at an additional cost.

  • In addition to courses, students will have access to an online learning platform, which includes additional course and learning material, assessments, and a community platform with discussion boards and content fora.

  • Students will choose among 6 learning labs per year to workshop their assignments with peers in a supervised setting.

  • Students will be invited to participate in professional development seminars. In them, Enneagram professionals will present on a specific topic in working with the Enneagram followed by a Q&A time period.

  • in addition to live coursework with Bea and Uranio, students will have access to additional learning materials, including video courses, audio lessons, and written materials.

COURSES

Students will be required to participate fully in the live online courses. The professional workshops will be partially recorded and the inner work retreats are not recorded at all. Students cannot take any meetings or step out of the course for any reason in order to count the course toward their program certification.

PROFESSIONAL SKILLS WORKSHOP

Developing Powerful Enneagram Skills

This workshop provides a deep grounding in the Enneagram as an extraordinarily effective and inspiring client resource. It will equip you to make well-informed, skillful use of the Enneagram in your professional work with clients. Through learning about myths and misconceptions, key issues, and “what works” and what “doesn’t work” when working with the 9 types and 27 subtypes, this course will take your Enneagram knowledge and skill in working with the Enneagram to a much higher level.

This course is available online only.

PROFESSIONAL SOLUTIONS WORKSHOP (2 Parts taken in any order)

Expert Typing Methods

This workshop provides methods to help clients find their Enneagram Types, Subtypes, and Instinctual Sequences using CP Enneagram typing tools. Also, students will learn how to guide clients after they take these tests and how to make safe use of them.

Overcoming Client Challenges

This workshop focuses on helping you develop greater facility by evaluating real case studies, learning to assess the client’s challenges, and providing specific solutions to their needs, so you can apply the Enneagram in your professional work for maximum, positive “outer impact” with your clients.

This course is available online only.

INNER WORK RETREAT

The Experiential OR Psychological Enneagram

The curriculum for The Experiential Enneagram has to do with awakening and can be extremely spiritual by nature. For some students, this can be overwhelming depending on where they are psychologically. We like students to follow their intuition and listen to their needs at that time. The Experiential Enneagram focuses on removing blocks that have been holding you back. It is narrative-based and may involve releasing and identifying trauma or somatic work. By contrast, The Psychological Enneagram deals with the Levels of Awareness, meditation techniques, core emotions, and the need for psychological work.

These courses are available online or in-person.

WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY

"I thoroughly enjoyed taking part in this course with Bea & Uranio and meeting people from all over the world.

  • CP Enneagram Academy, including the Supervisor in consultation with Beatrice Chestnut and Uranio Paes, reserves the right to assess the Student’s eligibility for professional certification and may postpone the Student’s graduation due to one or more of the following reasons:

    • incomplete or low-quality assignments, poor grades in assessments;

    • lack of commitment to the program/supervision process;

    • lack of knowledge of one or more fundamental concepts;

    • lack of commitment to continuous inner work;

    • lack of commitment to the code of conduct and participant expectations.

  • In the case of graduation delays, supervisors and instructors will provide Students with additional study materials, courses, and assessments to improve the Student's knowledge of a given topic. They may also recommend psychotherapy to tackle a given personal issue that may impact the student’s progress and will provide a list of therapy recommendations at different price points, if applicable.

  • No. While our live courses can all be taken remotely, only portions of them are recorded. Students are required to participate fully in order for the sessions to count toward their certification. This means that students cannot step out of the classroom for meetings or other commitments during course time. We ask that if you know of a commitment you cannot change that you register for the course at a future date.

  • Uranio Paes started using the Enneagram mat to guide inner work. Since then, Bea and Uranio also use this sacred symbol to help their students in inner work. We offer the Enneagram mat to students who are serious about using it respectfully and ethically. You can learn more about purchasing it here.
