Questions to Ask when Choosing a Feng Shui School or Program
Feng Shui training can be an empowering opportunity – train with an expert and start your course to Feng Shui professional excellence on the right track!
Choosing a Feng Shui School is an exciting time and often can be confusing as to what perspective to study. Specific research can assist you in clarifying a decision that will support your highest intentions. We recommend asking Feng Shui School questions to help you in that research!
“Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.”
Consider the following questions when searching for the right school or program. Your choice is uniquely you.
1
What Feng Shui perspective do you teach? (ie. Traditional, BTB, Western or Form, Flying Stars, etc.) And what other modalities and practices do you include in training or are available?
2
How long has your school been operating? What is your background and why did you start your school? What is your guiding mission?
3
When I complete the program, will I be certified to practice Feng Shui? What does it mean to be certified?
4
How is the program structured (onsite, online, correspondence, etc.)? Are their case studies or experiential opportunities, such as hands on training included in your program?
5
How long does it take to complete the program? If I miss some of the training, how can I retake it or make it up? Are there some parts of the training that I complete on my own?
6
What is the cost? Are there additional fees (such as books, materials, supplies, off-site training, etc)? Is there a payment plan? Do you accept PayPal, Venmo, check, or other payment processing options? What is your refund policy and are there cancellation fees?
7
Who are the instructors?
What is their background and training?
How long have they been teaching?
What makes them uniquely qualified to be a part of your program?
8
Are advanced certifications or training programs available? Are these optional or required for certification or graduation?
9
Do you offer certifications in Feng Shui related disciplines (i.e., Space Clearing, Baubiologie, Interior Design, Reiki, Green Design, etc.)?
10
Do you have a follow-up support or mentoring program? What type of support do you offer for graduates? Are there ways for students to stay connected to each other and the greater feng shui community? (Hint: Join the IFSG 
)
11
How many of your graduates are practicing Feng Shui consultants? How many have chosen not to actively practice and why? Are they full time or part time?

May I have references?
