If you want to become certified to teach anger management classes, what
are your choices of training programs? Actually, there are numerous
"models" of anger management that work well- despite the claims of some
that there is only one training model that works.
Some organizations warn that if consumers are trained by anyone else but
them, they are not legitimate or credible. Wouldn't it seem ridiculous
that only one program in the entire world could produce a well trained
anger management provider? Of course not. Consumers should make their
choice of anger management training by reviewing the program content,
not marketing propaganda by other organizations. Clearly there is room
for various models of anger management intervention, just as there is
room for varies models of psychotherapy, medicine and other
interventions.
Actually, consumers should look around and pick a training model that
best fits their particular clients. Following is a list of reasons why
we believe the Century Anger Management Model should be strongly
considered:
1. It was developed by two experienced psychotherapists, both with Ph.D.
degrees, and both licensed by the state of California to practice.
This is important because anger management involves an array of clinical
skills, both in assessment and practice. The 40-hour training program
they developed includes many modules based on their research, education,
and training. This ensures the best possible background for those doing
anger management individually or in classes or groups.
2. Century Anger Management is very user-friendly. We will support you
during your training and after you have been certified. We answer all
emails and all phone calls. We value our providers and do everything we
can to keep providers current in our model of anger management. Our
certification is valid for two years- with very inexpensive continuing
education after that.
3. We have now trained hundreds of providers in California and
elsewhere. While we can't claim that we are the biggest anger management
training company yet, we are growing and we try harder. Our model is
used by many large organizations such as the Salvation Army, numerous
Probation Departments, military installations, and County Mental Health
Systems, and approved by the CA State Board of Corrections to train
probation, parole and correctional officers.
4. We offer two ways you can become certified - through Live Training or
through our new home-study program. This makes it flexible and
convenient for both local people and people across the country who can
benefit from our model without having to fly to California to be
trained.
5. Unlike most other training organizations in anger management, we
offer many free resources to providers and consumers alike, to help
people with their anger issues. This includes free newsletters,
podcasts, articles, and other resource materials.
