Certification Requirements
Awarding of a certificate assumes that the recipient has submitted to the rigors of intellectual inquiry, achieved specialized and general knowledge and acquired motivations and abilities for continued learning, and that the student has: fulfilled hourly contact hours with the primary E-RYT (JJ Gormley-Etchells); demonstrated proficiency in teaching yoga and completed all coursework required as well as all outside assignments; cleared all accounts; satisfactorily passed the exam.
Each graduate is issued an official certificate or diploma upon completion of all graduation requirements. The certificate does not guarantee jobs, but every effort will be made to help graduates find positions for which they are best qualified.
