Become a Client Practitioner (CP)

The Insights Discovery Accreditation  (IDA) is a four-day learning  experience that will give you – as a training professional – all the skills and knowledge  you need to deliver impactful Insights  Discovery-based learning in your organisation. Being accredited as an Insights Discovery Client Practitioner means you can deliver workshops, coaching and Insights Discovery profile debriefings on your own, in your own workplace.

Having an Insights Discovery Practitioner within your organization ensures the learning is long-lasting, as it can be connected with day-to-day operations and communications.

When you join an IDA, Insights are committed to teaching you everything you need to know to apply Insights Discovery in your own organisation or in your delivery to clients. However, some facilitating and coaching experience will be assumed. You must have some prior knowledge of Insights Discovery in the form of either a workshop or debrief session. After all, we want you to experience the magic for yourself before you decide if the IDA is for you. But don’t worry if you haven’t yet experienced Insights Discovery! We can provide you with this experience if you’re interested in becoming a Practitioner.

When you register to attend an IDA (virtually or in-person), you’ll have essential pre-work to complete before you attend, which are:

  1. Complete your own Insights Personal Profile
