Each NOVA Instructor is required to complete the NOVA Instructor training to become certified.
Training is available in an on-demand format through NOVA Central. Once the various session modules have been completed, trainees will be invited to participate in a half-day live virtual session. This will finalize their training.
As a new instructor, you will have approximately 24 hours of training to complete prior to the half-day live session. All on-demand training modules need to be completed prior to attending the live virtual session.

We suggest you schedule time with your department each week to complete this coursework. Perhaps ½ day or full-day block of time, where you will be uninterrupted.
The sessions are interactive. There are quizzes, videos, teaching others what you have learned, etc. You will have an opportunity to learn life-changing skills that apply to yourself and others.
In addition to NOVA Instructor Training:
There is a requirement for continuing education (12 hours) over a three-year period to maintain your certification. These hours are simple to acquire to maintain your training.
