Graduate Engaged Pathway.
As you step into the extension of what’s already been a transformative journey, we’re here to hold you through the next part. Envision yourself heartfully supported by the collective and your guides to integral excellence as you take your connections deeper, weave your community, and grow the impact on your life and others’, as you evolve within the NVW family. Whether you are a coach, envisioning the future, working in-house, starting your own business, or just being – exactly as you are – we welcome you!
About the pathway
Enhanced capacity and skillfulness for all of life.
The cohort experience forms the central strand running through the yearlong pathway and is structures as such:
- Kick-Off Session in October
- Three mid-year integration sessions
- A completion session in September 2027
- Advanced programs
These community sessions are the mainstay where we invite everyone to participate. They will be a place to integrate learning and deepen relationship.
Upon registration you will select the graduate courses you would like to participate in for the duration of the year. The courses for the October 2026 Graduate Engaged Pathway from which you will select are listed below.
Some helpful considerations:
- While you’re welcome to participate in all of the courses, the intention with the Graduate Engaged Pathway is for you to curate a journey that aligns with your interests and capacity. Thus, it is not required that you participate in every course on offer.
- If for any reason, you cannot participate in the Graduate Engaged Pathway but would like to be in a supportive developmental container, you have the option to register for the cohort as a standalone experience.

FAQ
For the Graduate Engaged Pathway, we orient towards integration (vs a theme). We are the unifying thread. Each program offers the space to turn toward these particular aspects of ourselves and more fully, integrating them.
The Graduate Engaged Pathway is a year-long offer. We run two cohorts per year:
April – March
October – September
There are two layers supporting the community container. The first are the kick-off, integration and completion sessions. These will facilitate establishing and deepening the cohort relationships. Additionally, there will be small pod groups designed for more close-in contact and relational connectivity.
Integration and community are central principles guiding the Graduate Engaged Pathway.
Here are a few benefits:
- Participate in yours and others’ transformational growth
- Build new relationships with like-minded peers and faculty
- Learn through guidance and community
- Eliminate the guesswork on where to go from here
- Engage within a container for continuous self-development
- Discover impactful practices and reflections
- Continue developing a solid cohort and potentially friends for life
- Practice Integral Coaching in a dedicated space
