16-Week Course

Course Delivery

The e-Learning course is offered in 16 modules via email on a weekly schedule. Course sessions normally begin in early January and again in early September. To see the next course schedule click on the “Become an Internal Coach” button above.

Optional video meetings to share experiences are scheduled depending on bandwidth available around the world and availability of participants in different time zones.

Assignments and Class Size

Modules are issued on Saturdays and assignments are due eight days later on Sunday. Assignments are reviewed by a trained Relationship Model™ instructor and returned to participants as a combined document to enable the participants to learn from each other. The course is limited to four participants per course session. This limit controls the amount of reading that is required by the participants when lessons are returned.

Cost

The cost per participant is $3,600 USD. Canadian orders will be discounted at checkout. 

Organizations have the option to fill the class with their own four people (from members of the board, the CEO or pastor, or senior staff members). Where four participants come from the same organization or church, the fourth participant is free.

Curriculum

The 16-week course (one module per week) is divided into two parts. In Part 1 you will learn about the universal understanding of relationships which create the foundation of The Relationship Model™, or the operating system as we call it. Read more about this operating system on The Relationship Model™ page of this website. In Part 2 you will learn about a complete model of governance, leadership, and service delivery. Read more about this on The Relationship Model™ page of this website.
