Dr. Tal Ben-Shahar – June 1, 2022 – Certificate in Happiness Studies course in open

This course is a 12-month-long online program that comprises two courses:
1. Introduction to Happiness Studies
2. Facilitating Happiness

The first course includes 26 lectures and 13 webinars while the second includes 14 lectures and 6 webinars. Lectures are pre-recorded so students can watch them at their convenience. Webinars are live, an opportunity for students to ask questions, but they are recorded so if they cannot attend the live event, they can always watch it later. All lectures and approximately half of the webinars are led by Dr. Tal Ben-Shahar.

Each week the student will receive some homework including guided meditations, visualization exercises, journaling activities, and more. The activities are designed to increase retention and assimilation of material.

Students should be prepared to invest a minimum of three hours a week on all the tasks—including watching the lectures, participating in the webinars, and doing their homeplay.
