-
With over 40 hours of content Level 2 provides you with Enneagram with advanced tools for how to recognize the nine Enneagram types and three instinctual types utilizing the science of microexpressions, somatics and lexical analysis. This level will give you to greater confidence in recognizing the types’ energies and characteristic language, energetic and behavioral patterns.
Level 2 moves you into an advanced understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of Ichazo's notion of "protoanalysis" with updated and refined information based on validated scientific research. Additionally, you will analyze type exemplars and work with other certification training students to begin tracking physical, linguistic, and behavioral markers of type. In this level you will gain deeper insight into the Enneagram Lexical Analysis Test process and how to utilize the ELAT and the corresponding "deep inquiry" method to begin applying your learning toward themselves, loved one's and/or clients.
Finally, this unit will delve deeper into the 27 Enneagram subtypes as described in the tradition of Claudio Naranjo and Katherine Chernick Fauvre and refined through Empathy Architect's research.
*Note that Level I Certification is an introductory level certification, and that to qualify for the title of “Advanced Teacher,” a Level II teaching certification must be completed after demonstrating competency of Level 1 concepts.
