Independent Affiliate Trainer Program
One of the most frequently asked questions by individuals who research our curriculum and company is how they may become legally authorized to teach our system to other individuals and organizations in their community. For this unique authorization, we have created the Independent Affiliate Trainer Program (IATP).
This course provides the training, certification, processes, teaching materials, as well as the legal authorization to utilize our research, curriculum, trade name, logo, and branding in order to fully benefit from the Crisis Consultant Group, LLC industry research, recognition and trade name.

Independently billing and collecting payment from clients allows full control over the financial aspect of training services provided. There are no royalty agreements required for affiliation.
