Amendments to the Level Two trainer pathway

The Professional Development Committee has worked on the feedback from Regional Meetings and has rewritten the proposal. One of the suggestions that most appeared in the conversations was a difficulty to understand the pathway as a whole in the light of the changes. Therefore, we’ve worked to write a new document in the format of a policy – a New L2 Trainer Pathway, so every trainer in the Academy is clear on what they are voting for.  If you have questions or need clarification, post on the Sutra Circle related to this Proposal or write to [email protected]. The voting will be open in two weeks.

We invite all users to contribute with the improvement of these translations.
