PRACTICE INSTRUCTION PROGRAMS, WHICH ARE BASED IN BUDDHIST TEACHINGS, ARE DESIGNED TO PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH ONE-ON-ONE INSTRUCTION GEARED TO THEIR PARTICULAR UNDERSTANDING OF THEIR SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE. THESE PRACTICE INSTRUCTION SESSIONS ARE DESIGNED TO HELP PEOPLE UNDERSTAND HOW TO INCORPORATE BUDDHIST PRECEPTS INTO THEIR DAILY LIVES. THIS IN-DEPTH PERSONAL INSTRUCTION REQUIRES STUDENTS TO LOOK AT THEIR PERSONAL NEEDS AND UNDERSTAND HOW THESE PRECEPTS CAN HELP THEM ACHIEVE SPIRITUAL HEALING.
RELIGIOUS CERTIFICATION PROGRAMS, WHICH ARE PRIMARILY BASED ON BUDDHIST PRINCIPALS, ARE DESIGNED TO PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH PROFICIENCY IN INTEGRATED ENERGY MEDICINE, APPLIED SHAMANISM, BUDDHIST PSYCHOLOGY STUDIES AND/OR DEPTH HYPNOSIS HEALING TECHNIQUES. CERTIFICATION IS AVAILABLE FOR DEPTH HYPNOSIS PRACTITIONERS AND FOR THOSE THAT COMPLETE THEIR STUDIES IN THE MINISTER EDUCATION PROGRAM. IN ORDER TO COMPLETE THE MINISTER EDUCATION PROGRAM, A STUDENT IS REQUIRED TO DEMONSTRATE PROFICIENCY IN ALL FOUR AREAS OF STUDY NOTED ABOVE AND PARTICULARLY IN UNDERSTANDING HOW BUDDHIST PRINCIPALS INFORM THE OTHER STUDIES IN THE CERTIFICATION PROGRAM. THE DEPTH HYPNOSIS PRACTITIONER PROGRAM AND THE MINISTER EDUCATION PROGRAM DEVELOP MINISTERS AND PRACTITIONERS WHO SUPPORT THE MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY IN THEIR INDIVIDUAL SPIRITUAL HEALING PATHS.
