As people walk through the Science of Mind and Spirit Curriculum, they may feel drawn toward becoming a Licensed Practitioner or Minister. CSL Grand Junction provides classes for the attainment of these paths.

The beginning coursework for becoming a Minister starts with Professional Practitioner Training, which leads to the RScP license with the Centers for Spiritual Living (CSL) and allows the Professional Practitioner to be a member of the ecclesiastical arm of a Spiritual Community.

A licensed Professional Practitioner may choose to continue to receive a Master Practitioner Certificate and/or choose to enter the Ministerial Training Program to become a Centers for Spiritual Living minister.

How to Become a Professional Practitioner

In order to be eligible for entry into the Professional Practitioner Studies Program, the student must have completed all required courses, as specified in CSL’s Policies and Procedures Manual. All certificated courses must be completed within the preceding five years of enrolling into Practitioner Studies. If more than five years has elapsed, then that course must be retaken.  No certificated course older than five years will be counted as meeting any requirement for entering Practitioner Studies.

There is a written examination at the end of the year, which is the first step in the licensing process. Upon passing the written exam, licensing candidates proceed to an oral examination by a panel of ministers and practitioners. After successfully passing the oral examination, the individual is licensed by the Centers for Spiritual Living. The individual is then ready to serve as a licensed Professional Practitioner for their spiritual community. They are also licensed to conduct private spiritual coaching sessions as an established business for themselves.

A license is valid for two years. Licenses are then renewed every two years upon validation of 250 hours of service, referred to as Continuing Licensing Units (CLU’s) and 45 hours of Continuing Education Units (CEU’s).

Class Description: Practitioner Training

The purpose of Professional Practitioner studies is to graduate and license powerful Practitioners who are: skilled in the art and science of spiritual mind treatment and healing; teachers of Truth; active, loyal and supporting members of their spiritual community.  Study focuses on the skills and responsibilities of the Professional Practitioner. It covers their relationship to clients, to the process of healing, to their spiritual community, to their global community and to the world. It is the students’ opportunity to apply what they’ve learned to assisting others on their path of evolution and teaching them to “live a life of their choice” and “to live their life fully.”
