What is a  Youthologist?

Youthologists are trained to inspire, equip and assist their clients in creating a happier, more organized spaces, relationships and learning to live a more balanced life based on each client’s personal goals and priorities. They help young people with every topic and area including self-esteem, study skills, room organization, friends and getting along with parents.

As a Youthologist, you also enjoy, study and maintain knowledge of current trends, issues and news going on with youth today.

Feel free to check out our website on Youthology.

What Do You Do As a Youthologist?

Youthologists will use the Youthology and Youth Coach Manual, videos and training course to learn Vanessa Van Petten’s amazing process to help youth identify their goals, priorities, stress triggers and areas of desired change. Youthologists will learn how to assess each challenge and then make an action plan based on each client’s needs.

Youth Coaches can offer the Youthology process and may package it along with coaching, organizing, or other services, and set their own fees for their offerings. (Youthologists keep all of their fees.)

Why Become a Youthologist?

The economic downturn has caused many amazing individuals to be out of work and has put additional stress on families and youth who need more help.

How Do You Become a Youthologist?

Contact Lynn: manager@radicalincorporated.com with a paragraph about why you want to become a Youthologist. She will approve you as a trainee.

What is the Training Process to Become a Youthologist Teen and Youth Coach?

Your initial training is conducted through interactive online classroom sessions where you participate and watch videos, forums, assignments, and the manual at the state-of-the-art Youthology Master Program web site hosted by Ning. You may attend “forum classes” and complete your course work when it is convenient for you, work at your own pace, and take the final examination when you are ready.

Once you have been accepted as a Trainee in the Youthology Masters program, you will be given an invite for the online classroom. Upon receiving your invite, you will be able to log-in to the Youthology Masters Program Web site, access the lessons and assignments, watch the video presentations and look at all of our other resources that will help you grow your business as a Youthologist and coach not only how to be one. There are 12 training modules that cover various topics, including the Goal Making Assessment, Study Skills System, the Family Peacemaking process and how to build a successful business as a Youthologist. You should expect to spend at least 1 to 2 hours on each module.

After you complete the training forums, to receive your official certification and begin building your Youthology Coaching business, you must score at least 75% on the final exam. If you do not receive this minimum score, you will be able to review your training materials again and retake the test up to four times within a second 30-day period. We are committed to helping you succeed!

What is the Course Material?

Think back to when you were a high school or college student. It’s likely you had to take some required courses that seemed to have little to do with preparing you for real life. This is certainly not the case with the Youthology Training Course! You will learn how to inspire young people, organize them and teach them to be passionate, while also learning more about yourself! (See a sample syllabus below)

What do I need to know about paying online for training?

Is my credit card information safe?

We send you and invoice via PayPal, you may also pay by check if you prefer. We do not retain your information.

What if I run into a technical problem?

You can e-mail us at manager@radicalincorporated.com

What does it cost to become a Youthologist?

The regular cost of enrollment is $499, but in consideration of the economic climate and requests from many coaches, we are offering a $100 “Recession Discount.”

Register now by emailing your request to manager@radicalincorporated.com

*We also offer discounts for referrals or group/partner registration.

How will I build my business?

As a Certified Youthologist your clients come from at least seven sources:

1. Referrals from the Radical Parenting web site

When you become a Certified Youthlogist, if you desire, your name will be added to the Certified Youthologists page on Radical Parenting. Potential clients may click on your name to learn your contact information or to be linked to your web site.

2. Referrals from Youthology Home Base

Radical Parenting receives many queries from people who want to work with a Youthologist. We pass on these leads to Coaches, based on performance.

3. Media Interviews

Some Youthologists desire to do media interviews to build their business and gain exposure as an expert. Vanessa has helped many coaches and youthologists gain local and national media exposure. Youthologists have access to training resources and pitching strategies for media endeavors.

4. Vanessa Van Petten’s media interviews, books, and website

Vanessa Van Petten makes regular media appearances—television, radio, magazines, newspapers, and the Internet—and speaks at events across the country. These appearances and events provide opportunities to promote Youthology on a national and local scale on your behalf. Her books, The Dirt-E Secrets of An Internet Kid and You’re Grounded! mention youthology.

5. Your own network of friends and contacts

In the Youthology Masters Program you learn how to build your business through networking in your community.

How do I get my own Coach or Youthologist website?

Vanessa works with many coaches to build their own website, brand and online products. See her social media consulting.

Do I need to be a computer expert?

You do not need to be a computer expert, but you do need to feel comfortable using a computer and accessing the Internet. Our tools are easy to use. If you are new to using a computer and the Internet it will be helpful if you to have someone you can consult about basic computer questions.

How does becoming a Youthologist work with other Life Coach or Professional Organizer programs?

Becoming a Certified Youthologist is an excellent match for a Life Coach or Professional Organizer. It will help you grow your business and provide you with certification and personalized service to offer your clients.

The service is also a great marketing tool. When you speak to groups or meet new families this is a great jumping off point for getting new clients with the question, “what is youthology?”

A Youthologist is not a licensed counselor what classification is the business ran under, to avoid difficulties with counseling laws and regulations?
In the forums we give you a contract/waiver that all of our clients sign that say we are not counselors or therapists, but rather just giving personal advice and help and then you are not liable.

What is the refund policy?

An individual who withdraws from program and seeks a refund within the first 48 hours of enrolling will receive a refund equal to 80% of the original registration fee. No refund will be made after the 48-hour period following registration. Therefore, it is imperative that the course objectives, guidelines, FAQs, Coaching Agreement, and course format be reviewed within the first 48 hours of enrolling in the program.

Requests for a refund must be made by e-mail addressed to manager@radicalincorporated.com stating the claimant’s time of registration, reasons for requesting the refund, and credit card payment information. Refunds will then be processed within 48 hours.

This is a wonderful progam and there is a great need for Youthologists today. I have been teaching for over 16 years and if ever there was a need for young people to be heard and understood, now is the time. I would love an opportunity to someday become a youthologist myself.

Email in your application!

Hi! I am interested and considering sending in an application. I currently work with at-risk youth in our school system and think there could be a use for someone of this nature within our community! Thanks!

7 Vanessa Van Petten February 2, 2010 at 5:26 pm

Absolutely, I think it would be amazing to have someone with your experience.

Vanessa

I am a little confused. Are you a liscensed psychologist/psychiatrist/social worker? After watching you on the “Housewives of Orange County” I guess your a therapist. I’m jsut looking for a little clarification if there are theraputic aspects to the program and what skills are taught. Thanks.

9 Vanessa Van Petten February 21, 2010 at 9:07 pm

HI

No, I have a training program built by youth for youth that works with kids on organization, study skills, resumes and passion projects, not therapy.

Vanessa
