Getting started with an IFS Level 1 Training

IFS Trainings begin with a General Application-and-approval process. Only individuals with an approved application are invited to register for trainings.

To participate in an IFS Institute Level 1 training, the first step is to review the admissions criteria to ensure you’re eligible to apply.

I meet the admissions criteria — what do I do next?

There are three steps:

1. Submit a General Application (GA)
Each training level (Level 1, Level 2, Level 3) has its own General Application.

2. Receive Approval
Once your application is approved, you become eligible to register.
Your approval does not expire.

3. Receive a Registration Invitation
When a Registration Period opens, approved applicants receive an email invitation with instructions for registering through the Customer Portal.

Registration happens by invitation only. Participants are not placed outside of this admissions & registration process.

A few important things to know

  • Submitting a General Application is the first step in the process. Seats in specific trainings are secured later, at the time of registration.

  • Approval means your application has been reviewed and accepted, and you’re now eligible to receive invitations to register for future trainings.

  • Registration invitations are sent over time, based on training availability.

  • If you’ve applied and been approved, waiting for your registration invite is a normal part of the process.

If the General Application is not currently open, you can sign up to receive email notifications so you’ll know when the next application period becomes available.

What can I do while I wait?

If you’re interested in getting your feet wet or building a foundational understanding of the IFS model while you wait, you may want to explore The IFS Online Circle.

This program is designed to support learning and exploration of the IFS Model and are separate from the training application and registration process.
