Professional Certification Program Terms

The Chestnut Paes (CP) Professional Certification Track consists of a development process that supports people using the Enneagram in their professional work to successfully assess, develop, and support individuals. This professional certification signals to the Enneagram community that the CP Enneagram Academy certified practitioner uses the highest quality and latest Enneagram theory and practices and applies the system in ethical, professional, and mindful ways.

The following agreement defines the terms between the CP Enneagram Academy and the Student entering into the professional certification track. The certifying Student and the CP Enneagram Academy agree to the following:

It is agreed that the steps of the professional certification are as follows (the workshops and the retreat can be done in any sequence):

The minimum time for the completion of the professional certification process is 6 months (and this is possible for students with a good amount of previous experience in workshop professionally with the Enneagram; students who choose to complete it in this timeline must first discuss this with CP staff and receive written permission). The maximum time is 2 years, considering that the subsequent workshop needs to be done in up to 2 years for the first to remain valid for the certification process.

The following benefits accrue to The Student who engages in and completes the professional certification process:

Personal Mastery Program Terms

The Chestnut Paes’ (CP) Personal Mastery Track for inner transformation consists of a seven-step self-development process using the Enneagram for meaningful psycho-spiritual personal growth. The seven steps guide the student through a supportive path of self-observation and developmental challenges that address limiting psychological patterns, work toward healing early hurts that support habitual defenses, and open up space for higher states of being, as described by Enneagram theory.

The following terms define the agreement between the CP Enneagram Academy and the student wishing to enter into the personal program process. The certifying student and the teachers and staff of the Chestnut Paes Enneagram Academy agree to the following:

A serious program of inner work requires a high level of safety, holding, and support for the person entering into and moving through the self-development process. For this reason, confidentiality will be held within the CP Enneagram Academy staff, which includes Beatrice Chestnut, Uranio Paes, the student’s assigned mentor, the staff therapists at the student’s retreats, and Amanda Braga, the Global Business Manager. Information will be shared as discreetly as possible within this team on a “need to know” basis.

Nine total integration period sessions with your mentor ($125 per session)
An annual membership to CP Online ($199 per year)

The minimum time for the completion of the personal certification process is 15 months (and this is possible for students with a good amount of previous inner work and Enneagram knowledge). The maximum time is 4.5 years, considering that each subsequent retreat needs to be done in up to 2 years for the first to remain valid for the certification process.

The following benefits accrue to the student who engages in and completes the personal certification process:

CP Commitment on Ethics

CP Enneagram Academy is committed to offering deep psycho-spiritual inner work opportunities for retreat students. This is not only CP’s “style,” but also a core value of honoring the depth and the transformational capacity of the ancient teaching the Enneagram represents.

During retreats, teachers don’t do any kind of individual work with students outside the group at breaks. This is so that we may reserve our energy for supporting the full group and meet with staff at mealtimes and breaks to prepare for group sessions.

Teachers commit to doing constant inner work, including work with shadows and blind spots. Teachers never stop studying and discussing what they need to be aware of in working with students. Teachers get ongoing professional help with their own psychotherapeutic growth work in order to be supported in their own self-development.

The inner work offered to students at retreats are communicated as suggestions. Students are strongly encouraged and supported to make whatever boundaries they need to make, including saying “no” to any piece of growth work suggested by teachers. Individual pieces of inner work are customized and crafted based on the staff’s (teachers and therapists) evaluation of each participant’s readiness as well as their stated growth goals.

Teachers offer somatic or energy-based work for students that sometimes may include putting their hands on (“non-private” parts of) their bodies, but only when consent for this is clearly given by the students. We will always explicitly ask permission for any work done with students, whether physical, emotional, psychological, or spiritual. Students will be encouraged to ask any questions they might need to ask before they grant permission for any piece of work.

All of our retreats are staffed by at least one licensed psychotherapist. This is to create an atmosphere of safety and support, as well as to provide staff members that can support students in their personal process during the retreat.

Teachers are always open for feedback from the students, who are encouraged to provide feedback when they feel it’s necessary.

Participants at our retreats are not required or asked to adhere to any particular kind of belief, religion, or spiritual path.

To establish an atmosphere of safety and trust, each and all participants, teachers and staff are asked to make an explicit commitment to hold confidential all personal information shared by participants in the course of retreats and workshops. Teachers and staff hold all private conversations with students confidential within the team of teachers and staff therapists at each retreat, unless students ask for specific communications to be held confidential with individual teachers and therapists. This is so the team can work together to support the individuals and the group. During integration time, mentors and coaches hold specific information confidential, but share general themes and concerns with the two teachers and co-founders of the Academy.

While the work done with each student during retreats is meant to be deep and impactful in a positive way, it is also designed to be integrated during the retreat. However, when a piece of work is significant and requires further integration work after the retreat, students in the Personal Mastery Program are strongly encouraged to finish integrating the in-retreat experiences in mentoring sessions and extra individual sessions with one of the mentors or teachers.

Teachers and staff at CP retreats always endeavor to create an atmosphere of compassion, non-judgment, acceptance, care, and respect for everyone in the group.

By completing the subscription, you fully and unreservedly agree and accept the Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy of the CP Online platform, the full version of which can be accessed on this same page. Therefore, it is recommended to read these documents carefully.

CP Online guarantees the 7-day guarantee period for requesting cancellation of the purchase in case of any inconsistency in the service offered.

The cancellation period informed above will be valid from the date of signature. Thus, you, the buyer, are responsible for verifying, immediately, if the access to the digital product purchased has been made effective. Accordingly, if there is a technical problem to access the content, the cancellation period will be suspended until the problem is resolved, when it will return to work where it left off.

The digital product is immediately delivered upon purchase via credit card.

As it is a recurring product, we do not work with bank transfers, deposits or checks, the credit card being the only form of payment available.

All discount coupons are valid for only 1 (one) period, so the next period will be automatically debited for the full contracted amount.

In case of refund, the buyer can be refunded by bank transfer or credit card refund. The refund, which is full, can take about thirty days for bank transfers, and 30 to 60 days when refunded by credit card.

If the purchase is being initiated by a buyer who has already made more than one refund request, the purchase may not be approved.

Completion of the purchase confirms the buyer’s awareness and agreement regarding the Subscription Terms.
