SYMC Email Intermediary™ and Discussion Board Moderator Volunteer Application

Please include the following information:

Applications are reviewed and approved by Penny Tupy.

Please complete this application in full. You will be notified vial email within a week of receipt of the application of your approval. Once approved you will be kept up to date on the next available classes. All Mods and EI™ providers must complete the Marriage Overview and the Infidelity Overview prior to taking the Moderator or EI™ provider training. All classes are offered via teleclass.

Directions:

Give your thoughts and values on the questions below. Answers must be in full sentences. The application is not based on your knowledge level as much as your thought processes, attitudes and belliefs, and your ability to relay those things with clarity. Be thorough. Feel free to use all resources at your disposal. This is an open book opportunity!

Some questions may seem more applicable to those in other roles with SYMC, Mentors and Coaches, for example. However, since Moderators and to a certain extent EI™ providers will be in a position to suggest resources and offer advice, these questions are pertinent for these voluntary positions as well.
