THE PROGRAM

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”60px”][vc_column_text el_class=”page-text”]The DAN Instructor Qualification Course (IQC) follows a modular format.
There is a Core Module and then a separate module representing each training program.

You can take all existing modules as part of one course, or just take the Core Module and one course module – whatever you are interested in teaching.

The courses are organised worldwide by DAN Instructor Trainers.
