The History, Nature, and Development of Ceremony is a step on the journey towards becoming a professional celebrant, a person steeped in the understanding of ceremony. Understanding inspires and motivates.This course enables you to transcend the mere “doing” of a ceremony and embrace its transformative power. It is a course of study, including practical field work, designed to shed light on the path to in-depth best practice. Each participant in the course is assigned their own individual guide. We have chosen experienced celebrants of excellent reputation to be our tutors and examiners to assist you, the student, to begin your study, to keep at it, to enjoy it and to complete it.

Ceremony, in all its aspects, is a significant element in the range of human experience. As a genuine celebrant, it is important for you to not only understand but to deeply believe in the profound impact ceremonies have on people and society. Whether it is marking life’s milestones, honouring noble achievements, or any other purpose, a genuine celebrant recognises that their calling lies in crafting meaningful and authentic rituals, that resonate with individuals and communities. Such transcend the ordinary and leave an indelible mark on hearts and minds.
