Registration has begun for the next Vision Educator Training Institute at Cambridge Health Associates. The course takes place in southern Maine over six, four-day weekends, from September 2011 to July 2012, and prepares trainees to work with a variety of vision conditions, including nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism and “middle-age sight.”

The 192 hours of class time emphasize hands-on learning; key habits and important exercises; and ways to create programs for individual students or groups. Trainees will learn how to teach others to see more clearly and comfortably by giving them tools to care for their own vision. Holistic healers can add another skill set to their existing practice and improve their own vision at the same time.

Tuition is $5,350, excluding travel, food, lodging and books. For more information and an application, visit VisionEducators.com/Becoming_a_Certified_Vision_Educator.phtml.

The 2011-2012 Vision Educator Training Institute takes place at 43 Mast Cove Road, Eliot, ME. To register, contact [email protected], call 207-439-9821 or visit VisionEducators.com.
