Assistant Teacher Training Program

Details of The Way's Assistant Teacher Training Program

Assistant Teachers on The Way

As The Way has grown, so has a need for app users to connect with teachers for live, personalized guidance. On a deep journey of awakening and non-dual exploration, ATs provide critical support, advice, answers, and sangha connections. This is offered through 1-1 sessions, small group Q&A sessions, and facilitated in-person gatherings for The Way's users around the world. ATs are compensated for all of these offerings.

The Assistant Teacher training program

The Way is looking to expand their network of ATs, and will be running a training program starting in February 2027. You’ll join a small group of 10 students on a 10-week course, working directly with Henry Shukman. You'll learn Henry's approach to meditation that is taught on The Way, and how to be an Assistant Teacher for The Way's global community. The course is free.

The training program is intended to be a short, intensive and specific deep dive for already-experienced practitioners. Candidates will need to have:

1. A sustained long-term meditation practice (at least 10 years of consistent daily practice and multiple retreats)
2. Existing experience of teaching (either meditation or a closely-related practice)
3. Experience with non-dual insight
