About This Training

Compassion fatigue. Burnout. Vicarious trauma. Moral distress. While different terms with varying definitions, the one thing all these terms have in common is they describe the emotional toll exacted upon workers in helping professions. CE-CERT (Components for Enhancing Career Experience and Reducing Trauma) is a model developed by Dr. Brian Miller for helpers to achieve conscious control over autonomic dysregulation. CE-CERT defines a suite of emotion regulation practices to transform the experience of doing helping work in real time.

Training Components:

  1. CE-CERT Foundations Training: A two-day, in-person experience providing information and skills in the five practice domains that comprise CE-CERT (Experiential Engagement, Reducing Rumination, Conscious Narrative, Emotional Labor, and Parasympathetic Recovery).
  2. CE-CERT Consultation Calls: Consultation and coaching on the CE-CERT practice domains is crucial to integration of emotion regulation practices to achieve conscious control over autonomic dysregulation. CE-CERT Trainers will facilitate ten virtual group consultation calls over a five-month period for participants to review and reflect on their experiences integrating the five practice domains.

Optional Component:

  1. CE-CERT Supervisor Training: CE-CERT is both a practice model and an approach to supervision. Join us for an immersive one-day virtual training specifically designed for supervisors seeking to integrate the CE-CERT practice domains into their approach on supervision. We highly encourage all professionals in supervisory roles to participate and enhance their supervision skills.

The registration deadline is March 31st, 2026.

Lunch will be provided both days of CE-CERT Foundations Training. 

Participants will have access to our online Learning Hub where training materials will be shared.
