In your role as an Evidence Based Birth® Instructor, you can teach parents or professionals or both!  You have the opportunity to choose the curriculum that works best fro your community and schedule. Our team is available to help you answers any questions you might have and gives you suggestions along you journey with EBB!

Evidence Based Birth® is committed to your success as an Instructor.  In addition to training dedicated to helping you market your own live events and continued social media training only for Instructors, to support you further and have your events seen:

- We have a Directory of Evidence Based Birth® Instructors.

- We have an events calendar on the main website for you to submit your events. 

- We cohost your events on Facebook through the main EBB page.

- We frequently highlight Instructor events on the EBB podcast.

- Every Thursday is "EBB Instructor Day" on the EBB Instagram page.

One of the beautiful things about this program is that you get to be in control of what you teach to your community.  You have access to all the curriculum once you complete your training so you can start with or focus on whichever workshop or seminar that fits the needs of your community best.  We encourage you to ask your community what they want as a first step if you are stumped on where to start. 

We are thrilled that the Evidence Based Birth® Childbirth Class interests you and your community!  We have seen it take off since its introduction in 2019.  In order to be eligible to teach this class, you must become an Evidence Based Birth® Instructor first. Once you pass the training, you will have the option to sign up for the additional training to able able to teach this class.

This is a unique characteristic of our Instructor program!  Once you pass, you are welcomed to connect with the team at EBB.  In the training, you'll meet Cat who is Director of the Instructor Program.  She and the other members of the EBB Team are here for you as long as you decide to continue as an Instructor!  If you choose the VIP option, Rebecca even does monthly coaching calls with you and the VIP Instructors. It is important to the EBB Team that you are successful and we will help you in any way we can. 

All of the training modules for the Evidence Based Birth® Instructor Program are online!  Although we challenge you to complete the training and pass the quiz to become an official EBB Instructor in 7 weeks, you do not have to commit to that timeline.  You can move through the training at your own pace, in your pajamas if you'd like! 

We typically accept 25-35 candidates each application period. 

Yes.  There is an option on your application that you can elect if you wish to be considered for a partial scholarship (limited) or a regular spot in the Instructor Program, should you not be awarded a full scholarship. 

Evidence Based Birth® recognizes most doula agencies.  DONA, CAPPA, Informed Beginnings, ProDoula, etc.  If you have a specific question about your certifying organization, please email support@evidencebasedbirth.com and we will help you from there!

In this event, you are welcomed to provide us with two recommendation letters from your colleagues or other that can speak to your commitment to evidence based care, character,  professionalism, and community presence.  Please note this on your application. 

You need to hold a current certification in a birth profession to be a Evidence Based Birth® Instructor. These particular credentials are required because we submit all new Instructors to the American College of Nurse Midwives for approval to teach our CEU courses, and that is one reason why we have this standard. We do however have Instructors in the process of completing their birth certification and training at the same time.  If this is the case for you, please email support@evidencebasedbirth.com and we will look at your specific situation. 

Yes!  You can use your NARM certificate as proof.

No.  Every year you must provide proof of certification or licensure in order to renew as an Evidence Based Birth® Instructor. Currently, the Evidence Based Birth® Instructor Program is not a certification agency. The EBB Instructor program is an advanced program for people who are already licensed or certified through another organization as either a nurse, CBE, doula, or midwife/physician.

Most of our curriculum is customizable to your community.  If there is ever a time where you  wish to modify the curriculum to present better to your community, we have a process in place for you to submit your suggestions for approval.  So far, our Instructors around the world have been  successful with these steps.

We have Instructors in many areas of the world where English is not spoken.  To teach in a different language, you simply sign a translation agreement with EBB and we go from there.
