- At AAOCC we
have developed a specific training program unique to the needs and
realities in America.
- Each trainee is required to fulfill all the requirements of
training and certification.
- Each trainee is required to agree
to our code
of conduct and agreement.
- Each Certified Celebrant is required to
perform a minimum of one Celebration of Life each year in order to
remain active as a AAOCC member.
- We believe that each Life
Celebration is unique and requires a tremendous amount of
flexibility on behalf of the Celebrant. To that end it is our belief
that all trainees need to have a grasp of the cultural norms in our
society as it relates to faith practices and principles.
- Although
many Life Celebrations do not include religious content, a person's
faith heritage still plays a significant role in ceremony styles and
choices. It is vital that we do our best to understand where people
are coming from.
- As seasoned Life
Celebration Specialists we have many years of experience. Having
participated in thousands of funerals we tell
lots of stories and share lots of helpful tips on how to be the
best.
- We are not text-book focused, we are life-focused.
- We are
active celebrants. It is our life and our passion. We
train from this perspective.
