Clayton experienced the Life Inventory Assessment as a 'treasure trove' to deepen his connection and exploration with clients in an extraordinary way. 

In the Life Inventory Assessment (LIA) coach training program, participants learn how to use the LIA assessment to accurately and effectively evaluative the well-being of the people they work with. Coaches that become proficient in using this tool help their clients to achieve higher performance, stronger mental health, and a better quality of life. The Life Inventory Assessment helps address major mental wellness and engagement challenges by helping people to find primary areas of focus and take action to improve. Aligned, purpose-driven individuals are more engaged and connected to their work and communities. 

The certification program uses a combination of effective adult learning modalities. Each major learning section has the following components:

• In-class facilitator-led 

• In-class peer partner practice 

• Online virtual learning delivered through micro-learning segments of video, graphics, and text

• Knowledge quizzes

• Assignments 

As a participant, you will receive 16 hours of in-class training, with approximately 12 hours of self-led homework and assignments, all preparing you to competently use the Life Inventory Assessment to help others enjoy a higher quality of life.
