CBE Basic Course

Description

The CBE Basic Course is the first-level course in the Core Belief Engineering Certified Practitioner Program. This course introduces the student to the basics of the Core Belief Engineering Model, its theoretical base and the real life application of the Benefit Structure Matrix exercise and the Basic Process, which include the cognitive, emotional, subjective and metaphorical levels of an individual. Students experience an engaging combination of presentation, discussion, demonstration, class exercises and exchange of processes.

Duration: 40 hours across five days

There are two CBE processes featured in this course:

1. The CBE Benefit Structure Matrix: under supervision and coaching from the Instructor or Resource Person, students will use the questioning and listening strategies taught to explore the initial point of belief values.
2. CBE Basic Process – under supervision and coaching from the Instructor or Resource Person, students will use the questioning and listening strategies taught and the Student Manual to guide a peer through the process of identifying and transforming core beliefs as chosen by the peer client. Most of a day is devoted to each student – guiding and/or being guided.
