Continuing Professional Development

Enhance your professional practice

Continuous professional development (CPD) is recognised as an essential element of professional practice in the ACSB and ASIS Codes of Ethics - in order to stay up to date with the ever-evolving knowledge base of our field, enhance your practice with specialist training, or address gaps you become aware of in your praxis.

Below are recommended offerings and trainings from Certified Sexological Bodyworkers and allied professionals, which we hope will support you in the evolution of your practice.

  • Like A Pro: The Wheel of Consent® for Professionals

    The Wheel of Consent is an integral element of the School of Somatic Sexology trainings. Like a Pro brings the transformative model of the Wheel of Consent to professionals working with topics of consent, boundaries, relational intimacy, body sovereignty, trauma recovery, sexuality, communication & touch; and is a prerequisite for taking the Working with Groups and Wheel of Consent Certified Facilitator courses.

    Originally developed for touch practitioners, the course has, by popular demand, expanded to include non-touch professionals like therapists, coaches, teachers, and workshop leaders.

  • The Yoga of Sex Home Study Course

    The Yoga of Sex is a homestudy course that covers many elements of the Certificate in Sexological Bodywork curriculum. It is personal exploration rather than a professional training and therefore ideal if you want to get a taste of what we offer on the CSB. If you subsequently take the vocational training, students who enrol in the complete Yoga of Sex Homestudy course receive a $300 scholarship towards the CSB professional training.
