Education

NCGR’s purpose is in part “… to pursue educational programs in various interdisciplinary fields related to geocosmic studies.”

In support of this, the following is offered:

NCGR National

  • NCGR online education courses toward mastery and certification, open to all. You do not have to be a member of NCGR. Several classes are designed in support of the certification program of PAA, NCGR’s sister organization.

  • NCGR webinars are offered monthly and are free for members. Participate live or view later online, technology permitting.

  • NCGR’s Foundations of Astrology Series offers instruction in astrology on YouTube, free to the public. Professional astrologers present introductory material that is essential for beginners and also paves the way to our more advanced four-level curriculum, which is recognized throughout the world for its academic integrity. David Perloff, President of the NCGR Boston Chapter, has contributed to the series with a webinar on Hemisphere Emphasis.
