Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get started with TMS?

If you’re a coach or consultant in team and leadership development, start with accreditation. If you’re an organisation seeking team development, find a practitioner or contact us to discuss your needs. If you’re curious about the research, explore our papers and resources.

Do I need to be accredited to access TMS Global resources?

Some resources are public (free eBooks, articles, research summaries). Others are practitioner-only (facilitation guides, session designs, detailed research data). Accreditation gives you full access.

How long does it take to become accredited?

Training duration varies by product (1–3 days per product). You can get accredited in multiple products over time.

Is there ongoing professional development after accreditation?

Yes. TMS Global offers continuous learning through webinars and workshops. Participation is optional but encouraged.

Can I access research data for academic studies?

Yes. TMS Global collaborates with researchers and academics. Contact us to discuss data access, collaboration opportunities and academic partnerships.

What’s the difference between a Practitioner and an Associate?

Practitioners are accredited to deliver TMS Global products to their clients or organisations. Associates are select, high-performing practitioners who represent TMS globally, appear on our website, deliver public workshops and receive direct referrals from TMS.

How do I connect with other practitioners?

Join the private LinkedIn group (access provided upon accreditation) and participate in webinars and forums. The community is active and supportive.

Can I deliver TMS Global products without getting accredited?

No. TMS Global products are proprietary and require accreditation to administer, debrief and facilitate. This ensures quality, protects the integrity of the methodology, and maintains ethical standards.
