Frequently Asked Questions

GENERAL QUESTIONS

What is Momentum Education?

Momentum Education is a prominent organization, known for providing quality results coaching and dynamic personal development workshops. Our uniquely experiential workshops are proven effective in delivering a renewed sense of passion and vitality through discovery and immediately applicable techniques. Graduates see powerful results immediately within their relationships, family, career, finance, and overall quality of life.

How long has Momentum Education been in business?

Momentum Education was founded in 2003, however, the experiential learning model that is the foundation of Momentum Education's curriculum, was developed in the 1950s.

What makes Momentum Education's trainings and workshops unique?

The Momentum Education curriculum is offered in the method of Experiential Learning. In this unique format, learning takes place by being present in the experience rather than note taking, memorization or studying. It is an active and co-creative process, which engages the participant and allows individuals to discover what is wanted and needed for them to break through.

What is Coaching?

Coaching has been used to improve individual performance in sports, business and personal growth. Coaching is a one-on-one partnership that creates a space for individual learning to take place. Through coaching, you will begin to experience personal transformation, take meaningful and effective action, improve quality of life and create balance. Coaching provides insight, feedback, guidance and learning from an objective advantage. Coaching can help you:

  • Have a clear vision of what it is they desire

  • Create momentum and consistency while experiencing more energy

  • Improve the quality of existing relationships and create new ones

  • Build a solid sense of self-worth and confidence

One of the major attractions offered by having a personal coach is a safe, secure and confidential environment, which focuses on the client taking action and seeing new possibilities. The more open a client, the more room for coaching, the greater and faster the results.

Momentum Education believes that working with a personal coach is a powerful tool to enhance the results that you have already achieved through participating in either the Basic, Advanced and/or Leadership Program. For some, working with a personal coach prior to enrolling in our core curriculum provides enhanced support in creating their desired results.

In addition, there are some who benefit by using our coaching services independent of the core curriculum. Momentum Education's coaching services are designed to support you in creating the results that you want in life, and to serve you on an individual basis.

Do I need to attend all days of the training?

Yes. In order to maximize the value of the workshops for all participants, we require you to attend all scheduled training days in each level of the course.

Who are the workshops designed for?

Momentum Education's training is for individuals and corporations. The Momentum coaches are dedicated, expert trainers who have presented this type of training across many populations and diverse communities with thousands of participants worldwide.

The workshops are designed for people who desire to accelerate their results and are motivated to live their dream life – now. We find those who benefit most from our programs are adults who have already achieved a certain measure of accomplishment, learning and success, and who are looking to take themselves to the next level of achievement in life.

Can Momentum come to my school/ organization/business to do a workshop?

Yes. Please call us at 212.594.8070 for more information regarding our corporate and organizational offerings or submit a request here.

How do I explain the Momentum’s trainings to my friends and family? 

Momentum Education offers engaging, interactive, and thought provoking experiential workshops. If you’re a graduate we encourage you to share about the tools you’ve received in your experience, and how you’ve applied it in your life. If you are an upcoming participant who would like to invite others, you can let them know it is an opportunity to take a weekend to focus on you and your dreams, and gain additional tools and resources to accomplish what is on your heart. 

Is Momentum Education affiliated with any religious groups or other organizations?

No. Momentum Education is not affiliated to any religion, sect or other organization; we are a results-based organization. Our curriculum is designed to be compatible with any religious or spiritual belief (or lack thereof). Momentum is not a spiritual training, but rather one of leadership and empowerment in all aspects of life. Our belief is that all people matter and our vision is that people recognize the difference they make in the world while committing to and creating extraordinary results. Our training provides tools to make that a reality. That being said, graduates of our workshops often experience what they describe as an enhanced spiritual connection, especially within their own chosen faiths.

What if I don't want to talk during the workshop? 

While we encourage everyone to participate fully, all sharing is voluntary.
