Question 1

Are Trainers considered Bullet Journal® employees?

Accepted Answer

Certified Bullet Journal® Trainers are independent professionals who have completed our Trainer Certification Program. While we certify their training in the methodology, they run their own businesses and set their own rates, services, and availability. All services are booked and managed directly through the trainers, and Bullet Journal® does not oversee or take responsibility for those engagements.

Question 2

What does it mean to be a Certified Bullet Journal® Trainer compared to a fan of the method?

Accepted Answer

Certified Trainers have completed our official Trainer Certification Program, which includes weeks of in-depth study, peer and community teaching, feedback, and a final assessment. They’ve demonstrated both a strong understanding of the Bullet Journal® Method and the ability to teach it to others.

While many fans share great tips and content online, only Certified Trainers are authorized to lead official Bullet Journal® workshops and use our registered trademark in their offerings.

We cannot speak to the background, preparation, or expertise of any other teachers.

Active Certified Trainers will be listed on this webpage. In other places like social media or LinkedIn, you might also see a valid Credly Badge that certifies them as Trainers.

Question 3

What is the benefit of working with a Trainer vs. learning online?

Accepted Answer

Working with a Certified Trainer offers a more personalized, interactive experience. Trainers can answer your questions, draw on many different kinds of examples working with other clients, adapt examples to your unique context, and create space for reflection and real-time learning—something videos and written guides can’t always provide. With their expertise and training, they are able to create an experience that is tailored to you, compiling many resources into one place.

While online content is a great starting point, working with a trainer in your preferred learning style and context can help you apply the method more intentionally in your own life, work, or community.

Accepted Answer

All Certified Trainers have completed the official Bullet Journal Trainer Certification Program. This includes weeks of in-depth curriculum, peer and community teaching practice, and a final assessment. Trainers continue their learning through quarterly education sessions and demonstrate their ability to teach the method with integrity.

They have also completed the pre-requisite course, Writing for Being (Transformation Plan), which is a deep dive into the personal application of Bullet Journaling.

Question 5

What kinds of services do certified trainers offer?

Accepted Answer

Trainers design their own offerings, so services vary. Many already offer their own business services such as corporate training, life coaching, or workshops. Some specialize in working with educators, teams, non-profits or small business, or specific communities.

We encourage you to explore individual trainer listings to learn more about their services, experience, and availability.
