A structured, asynchronous governance model built to capture expert input without imposing unreasonable demands on members' time.
All deliberations occur through a dedicated, password-protected portal. Members receive notifications when input is requested and respond on their own schedule.
Certification standard updates and CE proposals are submitted through formal review cycles with clear deadlines — never ad hoc urgent requests.
Major changes to certification standards require documented Advisory Board input before adoption. Minority positions are formally recorded.
Once per year, a 60-minute recorded virtual session for open discussion. Attendance is optional; full recordings provided.
Founding Advisory Council seats are limited. If you are an experienced practitioner, educator, or researcher committed to rigorous holistic health credentialing — express your interest now.
