DiSC Training Certification:  Train-the-Trainer Classroom Format

Q: Is Certification needed to use DISC Profile tests? A: No, you do not need to be "certified". It is an option available for those developing longer training programs who are employed within training departments or organizations.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: This is the ONLY official certification program by the owner publisher of DiSC. This is NOT "certification" given by a distributor for marketing purposes.  Previous courses and other "certifications" were not and are not by the owner publisher of DiSC, Inscape Publishing.  Example: Prior to April 2006, you may have received a certificate from a distributor's company, but you are not publisher certified in DiSC, no matter what you were told.  Inscape has NEVER offered DiSC and Everything DiSC certification until now!   Register Early!

Use DISC in the best possible way.  Know, interpret, apply, and teach it well: Everything DiSC Trainer Certification for trainers and HR managers. The optional Inscape Certified Everything DiSC Trainer designation provides you with certification that demonstrates your in-depth understanding of DiSC, the Everything DiSC Facilitation System, and its many applications within your organization. It ensures that you are grounded in the newest DiSC research. You’ll be able to deliver your own DiSC training, coaching, and consulting sessions knowing you have a complete understanding of DiSC.

Q: Q: Is Certification needed to use DISC Profile tests? A: No, you do not need to be "certified".
It is an option available for those developing longer training programs who are employed within training departments or organizations.  If you were trained before April, 2005, when the new research based Everything DISC came out, you are using training information that is at least 12 years, and more likely 25 years, out of date, and no longer accurate.  DISC has grown far beyond the "blue book" into a platform of wide applications, with a dozen paper based and 40+ EPIC DISC online profiles. We have a full training schedule and Everything DiSC  to help you maximize applications using DISC.  It's time to get current and knowledgeable.   Register Now. 
Note:  If you are using DISC for hiring and/or recruiting, Certification will not help you, as that application for DISC is NOT covered in the 2-day training certification DISC program development agenda.

Q.  Why this certification process?  Do I have to go?
You can install and implement and customize Everything DISC without one minute of training.  In fact, you can use DISC without using any training materials at all.  You can proceed on your own.  But don't you want to use DISC in the best possible way?  Know, interpret, apply, and teach it well?

Everything DISC is based on new research in 2005 and does not rely on decades of faulty information that just somehow evolved because DISC is so popular.  When you lift the Everything DISC Manual of the Course Outlines, modules, and applications, you find it weighs ten pounds.  It's not hard to envision that you might want a little coaching and training on its use to get the most out of it.  Everything DISC is the most comprehensive DISC training process ever available, solidly based on new research.  It was 26 years in development.  It is comprehensive.  We can make it manageable for you.

The "textbook" for your 2 day program is the entire Everything DISC System and the EPIC DISC Reports: 
The Manual, The Everything DISC DVD, PowerPoints with presentation materials, Course Outlines, History, Research, the original DISC Theory Model of William Moulton Marston, DISC Applications (where do you use DiSC in its many forms), the online EPIC Client system for administration of DISC Classic and DISC PPSS, DISC paper profiles, QuikDisc cards, people reading cards.. And more...

Q:  What's the most important thing for me to do?
A:  Register early.  Class size is small and available on a first come, first served basis.  We will be covering a lot and you will appreciate the individual attention.  You also have class pre-work, we want to set up and let you practice with your EPIC account, and you may want to have received and reviewed your Everything DISC Facilitation System Manual and Everything DISC DVD and take it to class with you.

Q: Is Certification needed to use DISC Profile tests?    A: No, you do not need to be certified.
