📚 When Can I Begin the Courses and Accreditation Process?

Spirit Australia has a national board of twelve and four active committees. One of these—our Education Committee—has been working diligently for many months to shape a complete and inclusive education framework. Our vision covers everyone: from curious beginners in the general public to the wise elders of spiritual work in Australia, some of whom have served the public professionally for over four decades. It’s a big job, and we’re taking it seriously.

​

We’re consciously planning the big picture first, so that when we move into the finer details, we can do so with confidence, structure, and long-term clarity. We’re here for the long haul, and committed to inclusive collaboration every step of the way.

​

We’re also learning from best practices in mainstream education, as well as spiritual education here and internationally. There are many moving parts to get right. But we’re making great progress.

The short answer:
Spirit Australia’s courses and accreditation will begin in 2025. We’re aiming for August, so everything is ready for our September Five Day Seminar.

Nothing will be available during 2024, but we are well on track and excited about the year ahead. We’ll confirm launch dates as soon as they’re finalised.

🤝 What About Other Courses in Australia and Online?

This is such an important question, and one we’re really excited about! Spirit Australia is not here to replace existing courses. In fact, it’s the opposite: we actively support and promote the excellent work already being done across the country.

​

If you offer spiritual education—whether as an individual, organisation, or group—we’d love to connect. Spirit Australia is creating a network that will help amplify your work, increase your reach, and provide a stronger sense of community and shared integrity. Get in touch with us to find out how we can collaborate.

💸 If Spirit Australia is a Charity, Why Is Accreditation Paid?

Great question. Yes we are a registered national charity, established to advance education in the public interest. Our charitable focus is twofold:

​

1. To raise spiritual awareness across the broader Australian population

2. To support a more professional, ethical, and transparent spiritual community

This work takes time, energy, and resources—often through donated hours, but eventually requiring some financial sustainability. Offering intermediate and advanced levels of education (especially Levels 4 & 5) is one of our planned methods of fundraising to support our charitable activities long-term.

🌿 Why Is Spiritual Healing Not Offered at Level 4 or 5?

Healing is included at Level 1 and 2, and it remains an important part of our curriculum. We’re not dismissing it in any way. However, there are two key reasons we’ve currently chosen not to offer an Advanced Certificate (Level 4) or Diploma (Level 5) in Healing:

​

1. Reiki already has strong representation in Australia, with at least two established organisations supporting both practitioners and clients. This helps meet national needs in a structured way.

2. All mediumship is healing. Whether it’s through psychic reading, trance, spirit art, or sound—at the heart of every session is the potential for healing through connection with spirit. Because healing expresses itself in such diverse forms, we’re currently unsure how to do it full justice at an advanced level, especially when considering the many world traditions and healing modalities that exist.

We’re open to ideas and collaboration on this. If you’re passionate about spiritual healing and feel called to contribute your insights, please get in touch. We would love to hear from you.
