The first of its kind in North America, the Clever Companion ® Course prepares practitioners to work with their senior clients, to support and enhance their cognitive and mental abilities, using our Worlds Ahead ® Approach.
Worlds Ahead ® Approach Defined
Today’s seniors are more independent and better educated than ever. Women, especially, have achieved career success and have held positions of authority like no generation before. The goal of the World’s Ahead approach is to train practitioners to activate and validate the wisdom and experience of their senior clients, to help them stay engaged as lifelong learners and healthy, contributing members of society.
Delivered online over a span of two months, our Clever Companion ® Course covers:
-
-
- The World’s Ahead Approach to working with seniors
-
- The wide diversity within the senior population
-
- The latest science on cognitive stimulation and brain health
-
- Ethics and professional practice issues
-
- Effective communication and group facilitation skills
-
- Resource building and session planning
- Recruiting clients and building your own practice

Graduates of the Clever Companion ® course will join a community of practitioners, who will share best practices and ever-expanding online resources, regarding cognitive enhancement services for seniors.
Clever Companions ® will work with their clients one-on-one or in a small group setting (maximum 4 people). By facilitating discovery and discussion on specific subjects of interest for the client, the goal is to challenge and engage the client to remain mentally and cognitively fit.
The course tuition is $597 Cdn
