ANZ ACBS Trainers

Official ACBS ACT- Accredited Trainers

Official ACBS ACT- Accredited Trainers are committed to training with high fidelity to the ACBS model and work from explicit, agreed-upon shared values as they train others in ACT. The ACBS training community uses a process of peer review to determine whether a trainer meet criteria. The spirit of the peer review process is to protect the high fidelity of ACT training through review of the accuracy and quality with which a trainer shares the ACT model while simultaneously promoting a non-proprietary open community that encourages new talent and innovation.
