Program Costs for Apprenticeships

Let's Keep it Simple and Clear.

​For 1 - Year Apprenticeship

Costs = Monthly Fee (12 months) + Retreat 

Monthly Fee
Retreat Cost
360 per month
(Apprenticeship Class
Discount Rate)
1,200 Tuition
x 12 Months
+ Lodging (approx. 600)
= 4,320 TOTAL
= approx. 1,800
MONTHLY PAYMENTS
Classes occur over a 10-month period for the apprenticeship, but the payments are spread over 12 months to make it more convenient and affordable for you!  
LODGING
Lodging Rates for the retreat depend on the number of apprentices.  Cost of lodging is divided among apprentices; thus, more apprentices = decreased lodging cost.  
SHAMANIC HEALING
Shamanic healing is also a part of the apprenticeship; however, fees depend on the practitioner.  Practitioners MUST be graduates from the Institute.  Your Apprenticeship Leader will provide a list of accepted shamanic healers to you.  

Let's Talk Savings!

Whether you're planning to do 1 year or 2 years of the apprenticeship, each year has over 60 classes (about 120 hours!).  If you were purchasing these classes individually at the regular class rate, the apprenticeship classes would cost you over $6000.  The apprenticeship discount rate gives you approximately...
$1680.00
in Savings! 

For 2nd Year of Apprenticeship

The costs for the 2nd year of the apprenticeship are very similar to the first year (as are the SAVINGS!).  The monthly fee remains the same.  While there is no retreat, there is a Vision Quest, which is optional.  

Costs = Monthly Fee (12 months) + Vision Quest (optional)

Monthly Fee
Vision Quest (optional)
360 per month
(Apprenticeship Class
Discount Rate)
8 Days at Quest Site
+ 3 Vision Quest Classes in Advance
+ Medicine Walk
x 12
Flat Rate
= 4,320 TOTAL

SHAMANIC HEALING
Shamanic healing is also a part of the apprenticeship in the 2nd year; however, fees depend on the practitioner.  Practitioners MUST be graduates from the Institute.  You can continue to work with the same shamanic healer as you did in Year 1.  

Simple.    Clear.
