---

The diploma is the first certificate obtained on the path to becoming an enneagram professional. It is an honorary degree, and is only awarded upon request. The diploma is not awarded in the annual graduation ceremony.

In order to obtain the Enneagram Diploma, the following courses must be successfully completed:

• E1: Know Thyself
• E2: Immerse Deeply
• E3: Instincts and Subtypes
• E4: Inner Work
• E5: The Shadow

The Enneagram practitioner is a mark of excellence in the field of Enneagram. It certifies that its holder is knowledgeable and experienced in the science and art of the Enneagram. By finishing the 9 module Enneagram practitioner program, you will be guaranteed to have covered most of the major personality, psychological, and spiritual theories and practices within the enneagram field of knowledge.

In order to be certified as an Enneagram Practitioner, the following courses must be successfully completed:

• E6: Relationships
• E7: Mindfulness and the Enneagram
• E8: Growth
• E9: Awakening

The Advanced level of the Enneagram program is the Levels of Consciousness Journey. Though it may be studied as a stand alone journey, only requiring knowledge of one's enneagram type, yet it is actually intended and most suited for the advanced enneagram practitioner in order to move on to higher and more expanded levels of consciousness and stages of being and awareness.

By completing the following courses, the enneagram practitioner goes on to receive a Certified  Enneagram Master degree.

• LOC1: Stages of the Heart
• LOC2: Stages of the Mind
• LOC3: Ascending the Stages
• LOC4: Integral Life Practice
• LOC5: Spiritual Transformation

Fully and successfully completing the Enneagram Practitioner program is a prerequisite to receiving the Enneagram Master degree.

Those who have not yet completed their Enneagram Practitioner program and go on to study the Levels of Consciousness journey in its entirety, either as a stand alone journey or studying it along side the enneagram practitioner journey, will receive a "Levels of Consciousness Diploma" certificate. This is an honorary degree and is not celebrated in the annual graduation ceremony.

If they however go on to finish the Enneagram Practitioner program, even at a later date, they will then be awarded the Enneagram Master degree.
