Embodied Metaphysics® Manifestation Coach Certification

Certification Participation Agreement

This Certification Participation Agreement (“Certification Terms”) governs your purchase of, enrollment in, access to, participation in, and/or certification through the Embodied Metaphysics® Coach Certification Program (“Certification Program”) offered by TheUniverseGuru LLC (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

These Certification Terms are in addition to and supplement the Company’s general Terms and Conditions, Privacy Policy, and other applicable policies (“General Terms”), which are incorporated into these Certification Terms by reference.

By purchasing, enrolling in, accessing, participating in, or seeking certification through the Certification Program, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to both the General Terms and these Certification Terms.

If there is a conflict between these Certification Terms and the General Terms regarding a matter specifically related to the Certification Program or certification credential, these Certification Terms control with respect to that matter.

1. PROGRAM STRUCTURE

The Certification Program is an educational and professional-development program delivered primarily online.

The Certification Program may include recorded curriculum, written materials, exercises, assignments, assessments, demonstrations, recordings from previous live training, optional live sessions, community features, bonus materials, and other educational resources selected by the Company.

Not every component listed above is guaranteed to be offered.

The Company may add, remove, replace, revise, reorganize, update, or discontinue curriculum, modules, instructors, assessments, bonuses, live sessions, community features, technology platforms, delivery methods, schedules, or other program components at its discretion.

Recordings may have originated during previous live cohorts or training experiences and may contain references to participants, dates, events, assignments, live discussions, or program features that are no longer applicable to current participants.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, enrollment does not guarantee future live instruction, individualized coaching, private access to instructors, community participation, future program versions, or future products or services.

2. CURRICULUM ACCESS

Participants receive a minimum of three (3) years of access to the core Certification Program curriculum made available to them, measured from the participant’s original enrollment date, unless a different minimum access period is expressly stated in writing at the time of purchase.

The Company may, at its discretion, provide access beyond this period, including ongoing or lifetime access. Any access voluntarily provided beyond the contractual access period is a discretionary benefit and does not create an obligation to continue providing such access indefinitely.

Access does not guarantee continued availability through any particular website, learning platform, application, technology provider, file format, feature, community, instructor, or delivery system.

The Company may migrate, replace, modify, or discontinue technology platforms and delivery systems and is not required to maintain obsolete versions of curriculum, recordings, technology, downloads, or other materials indefinitely.

Access remains subject to the General Terms, including provisions concerning payment, account use, intellectual property, and termination.

3. BONUSES, ADDITIONAL COURSES, AND OPTIONAL BENEFITS

The Company may provide participants with bonuses, additional courses, live sessions, communities, events, updates, extended access, or other benefits beyond the core Certification Program.

Unless expressly identified in writing as a guaranteed component of the Certification Program purchase, such additional benefits may be modified, substituted, discontinued, restricted, or withdrawn at the Company’s discretion.

Access terms applicable to another course, bundle, membership, event, or product remain subject to the terms governing that product and do not automatically become part of the Certification Program.

The Company’s voluntary provision of a benefit, accommodation, extended access, update, bonus, support resource, or additional service does not create an obligation to continue providing it.

4. PROGRAM COMPLETION DOES NOT EQUAL CERTIFICATION

Purchasing, accessing, participating in, or completing the Certification Program does not automatically confer certification.

Certification is a separate credential granted only after the participant satisfies the certification standards established by the Company.

Certification requirements may include completion or review of designated training, acknowledgement of training completion, quizzes, written or applied assessments, demonstration of understanding, professional-conduct requirements, or other reasonable requirements established by the Company.

Current certification requirements will be described within the Certification Program or its assessment materials.

The Company may reasonably revise the format, content, scoring method, submission process, or administrative requirements of certification assessments.

The Company retains discretion to determine whether certification standards have been satisfactorily met. A participant may be required to revise, resubmit, repeat, or complete additional assessment work before certification is granted.

Enrollment in or completion of the Certification Program does not guarantee certification.

5. NATURE AND LIMITS OF CERTIFICATION

Certification signifies that the participant has satisfied the Company’s training and assessment requirements applicable at the time certification is granted.

Certification does not constitute:

  • a governmental or professional license;

  • accreditation by a governmental agency or professional licensing body;

  • authorization to practice medicine, psychology, psychotherapy, counseling, law, accounting, financial advising, or another regulated profession;

  • employment by the Company;

  • supervision by the Company;

  • partnership, agency, or affiliation with the Company beyond the certification relationship;

  • endorsement or approval of the participant’s business, services, methods, representations, or client outcomes; or

  • a guarantee of competence or results in every circumstance.

Certified participants remain solely responsible for determining what services they may lawfully and ethically provide in their jurisdiction and for complying with all applicable licensing, professional, business, and regulatory requirements.

6. INDEPENDENT PRACTITIONER — NO COMPANY AFFILIATION

Participation in or certification through the Certification Program does not create any employment, partnership, joint venture, franchise, agency, representative, affiliate, fiduciary, or similar relationship between the participant and the Company.

Participants and certified practitioners operate independently.

Participants and certified practitioners are not employees, agents, partners, spokespersons, representatives, or affiliates of the Company and may not represent themselves as such.

Participants may not enter agreements, incur obligations, make representations, assume liabilities, or otherwise act on behalf of the Company.

The Company does not supervise, direct, control, approve, or oversee a participant’s or certified practitioner’s independent coaching or business activities.

Participants and certified practitioners are solely responsible for their businesses, services, advertising, representations, taxes, insurance, legal compliance, professional conduct, contracts, clients, and client outcomes.

7. PERMITTED APPLICATION OF TRAINING

Participants may use the knowledge, skills, principles, and coaching abilities developed through the Certification Program in their own personal development and independent professional work, subject to these Certification Terms and the General Terms.

Certified participants may apply concepts and coaching approaches learned through the Certification Program when working with their own private clients or groups within the scope of their independent businesses.

This certification-specific permission to apply learned concepts and skills professionally controls over any general “personal, noncommercial use” restriction in the General Terms solely to the extent necessary to permit such professional application. It does not authorize commercial reproduction, distribution, teaching, licensing, resale, or exploitation of the Company’s proprietary materials or intellectual property.

Participants are encouraged to develop their own original perspectives, frameworks, processes, methodologies, terminology, examples, tools, and Signature Methods based upon their own experience, expertise, synthesis, and original contribution.

Independent creation does not include copying, lightly modifying, renaming, restructuring, repackaging, or presenting the Company’s proprietary curriculum or materials as the participant’s own work.

8. CERTIFICATION-SPECIFIC INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND TEACHING RIGHTS

In addition to the intellectual-property protections contained in the General Terms, the Certification Program contains proprietary curriculum, recordings, diagrams, frameworks, terminology, methodologies, teaching structures, exercises, assessment materials, slides, worksheets, and other intellectual property owned by or licensed to the Company.

Certification authorizes participants to apply their learning in their independent client work. It does not transfer ownership of the Company’s intellectual property or authorize participants to reproduce, distribute, license, certify others in, or teach the Certification Program itself.

Without prior written permission from the Company, participants may not:

  • reproduce or teach the Certification Program itself;

  • offer the Company’s proprietary curriculum as their own curriculum;

  • train or certify others to deliver the Company’s proprietary methodology;

  • reproduce the Company’s protected frameworks, diagrams, slides, assessments, worksheets, or teaching materials as educational products;

  • create a certification or teacher-training program materially derived from the Company’s proprietary Certification Program materials;

  • rename, lightly modify, restructure, or rebrand the Company’s proprietary training and present it as an independently created methodology; or

  • authorize others to use the Company’s intellectual property.

Nothing in this section is intended to prevent participants from developing genuinely original courses, coaching programs, frameworks, methods, books, content, or educational materials based upon their own ideas, experience, expertise, synthesis, and original expression.

Participants remain free to become coaches, consultants, educators, authors, course creators, trainers, and thought leaders in their own independent bodies of work.

The distinction is between applying and integrating what you have learned into original work and reproducing, repackaging, or training others in the Company’s protected Certification Program and proprietary materials.

Participants remain responsible for respecting the intellectual-property rights of the Company and third parties and for providing appropriate attribution where required.

9. CERTIFICATION TITLE AND CREDENTIAL USE

Only participants who have been formally certified by the Company may represent themselves as certified through the Certification Program.

Certified participants may truthfully identify their credential using terminology authorized by the Company.

Certification may not be presented in a manner that implies:

  • employment by the Company;

  • Company supervision;

  • partnership, agency, or affiliation beyond the certification relationship;

  • Company endorsement of the participant’s business or services;

  • Company responsibility for the participant’s clients or outcomes; or

  • credentials, licenses, qualifications, or authority beyond those actually earned.

The Company may establish or revise reasonable guidelines concerning use of certification titles, certificates, badges, logos, trademarks, or credential language.

10. CLIENT DISCLOSURE

Certified practitioners must clearly operate as independent practitioners and may not represent the Company as responsible for their services, advice, business practices, or client outcomes.

Where a practitioner uses the Company certification as a credential in connection with client services, the practitioner’s client agreement must contain the following disclosure or substantially similar language:

“Coach is an independent practitioner who has completed certification training through TheUniverseGuru LLC. Coach is not an employee, agent, partner, or representative of TheUniverseGuru LLC. TheUniverseGuru LLC does not provide, supervise, control, or assume responsibility for Coach’s services, professional judgment, business practices, or client outcomes.”

11. PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY AND SCOPE

The Certification Program is educational in nature.

Certification does not authorize diagnosis or treatment of mental or physical illness or qualify a participant to provide medical, psychiatric, psychological, psychotherapeutic, counseling, legal, accounting, investment, financial, or other regulated professional services unless the participant separately possesses the qualifications and licenses required to provide those services.

Participants and certified practitioners agree to operate within their lawful and professional scope and remain responsible for recognizing circumstances outside that scope and referring clients to appropriately qualified professionals when appropriate.

Participants and certified practitioners are solely responsible for determining whether a particular coaching concept, practice, tool, method, or intervention is appropriate for a particular client and for obtaining any appropriate client consent.

Participants and certified practitioners are responsible for obtaining any licenses, registrations, permits, insurance, client agreements, disclosures, waivers, professional advice, or other protections appropriate to their businesses.

The Company strongly recommends that certified practitioners maintain appropriate professional liability insurance.

12. PRACTITIONER RESPONSIBILITY, CLIENT CLAIMS, AND INDEMNIFICATION

Participants and certified practitioners are solely responsible for their own coaching, consulting, business activities, professional judgment, selection and application of coaching methods or interventions, communications, representations, advice, services, acts, omissions, and relationships with clients.

The Company and its owners, officers, employees, instructors, contractors, representatives, agents, and affiliates do not supervise, control, direct, approve, or assume responsibility for services provided by participants or certified practitioners to their clients.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company and its owners, officers, employees, instructors, contractors, representatives, agents, and affiliates shall not be responsible or liable for any claim, injury, loss, damage, adverse outcome, or other consequence arising from or relating to a participant’s or certified practitioner’s:

  • coaching, consulting, or other professional services;

  • acts or omissions;

  • professional judgment;

  • business practices;

  • representations or communications;

  • client relationships or client outcomes; or

  • selection, modification, use, misuse, or application of concepts, principles, frameworks, tools, methods, interventions, practices, or information learned through the Certification Program.

Participants and certified practitioners assume full responsibility for determining the suitability and lawful use of any coaching approach, method, practice, or intervention with their clients and for operating within their education, competence, professional scope, and applicable law.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, participants and certified practitioners agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless TheUniverseGuru LLC and its owners, officers, employees, instructors, contractors, representatives, agents, and affiliates from and against third-party claims, demands, actions, proceedings, liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, settlements, costs, and reasonable attorneys’ fees arising from or relating to the participant’s or certified practitioner’s coaching, consulting, business activities, professional services, acts or omissions, representations, client relationships, client outcomes, or violation of applicable law, except to the extent such liability cannot lawfully be excluded or indemnified.

This Section supplements, and does not replace, the limitation-of-liability and indemnification provisions contained in the General Terms.

13. SUSPENSION OR REVOCATION OF CERTIFICATION

Certification is contingent upon continued compliance with these Certification Terms and applicable credential requirements.

The Company may suspend or revoke certification for material violations including, without limitation:

  • unauthorized reproduction, teaching, licensing, or distribution of Company intellectual property;

  • material misrepresentation of certification status or affiliation with the Company;

  • misuse of Company trademarks, credentials, badges, titles, or branding;

  • material breach of confidentiality;

  • fraud or material dishonesty related to certification;

  • conduct in connection with the certification or certified practice that creates a substantial risk of harm to clients or others;

  • serious or repeated conduct inconsistent with applicable professional or legal requirements; or

  • material violation of these Certification Terms or the General Terms.

Upon suspension or revocation, the participant must comply with any reasonable instructions concerning use of certification credentials.

Upon revocation, the participant must promptly cease representing themselves as certified by the Company and discontinue use of certification credentials, badges, titles, or other indications of active certification controlled by the Company.

Suspension or revocation of certification does not entitle the participant to a refund or relieve the participant of outstanding payment obligations.

14. GENERAL TERMS GOVERN ALL OTHER MATTERS

The Company’s General Terms govern matters not specifically addressed by these Certification Terms, including, without limitation, general intellectual-property rights, account use, user content, privacy, disclaimers, limitations of liability, payments and payment plans, refunds, chargebacks, termination of program access, confidentiality, media and recording permissions, governing law, dispute resolution and arbitration, jury-trial and class-action waivers, severability, amendments, and representations concerning results or earnings.

Those provisions are incorporated into these Certification Terms by reference and are not repeated here except where additional certification-specific protection is appropriate.

If a provision of these Certification Terms conflicts with the General Terms regarding a matter specifically related to the Certification Program, professional application of the training, certification status, or use of the certification credential, these Certification Terms control with respect to that matter.

15. CERTIFICATION AGREEMENT

These Certification Terms, together with the incorporated General Terms and any purchase-specific terms expressly presented at enrollment, govern participation in and certification through the Certification Program.

Additional access, accommodations, benefits, bonuses, updates, support, live opportunities, or privileges voluntarily provided by the Company beyond those required by these Certification Terms do not modify these Certification Terms or create an obligation to continue providing them.

The Company’s decision not to enforce a certification-specific requirement or restriction on one occasion does not waive its right to enforce that requirement or restriction in the future.

By purchasing, enrolling in, accessing, participating in, or seeking certification through the Embodied Metaphysics® Coach Certification Program, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Certification Terms together with the Company’s General Terms and Conditions.
