How do people or teams get trained in DISC?

DISC training begins with an online individual assessment to identify one's primary behavioral styles in Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Compliance. Workshops and seminars, led by Dan Ashe, a certified trainer, provide comprehensive understanding through interactive sessions. For those aiming to become trainers themselves, certification programs offer extensive training on the DISC model and coaching techniques.

Online courses and self-paced materials are available for flexible learning, complemented by video tutorials and practice assessments. Personalized coaching from certified DISC coaches can further deepen understanding and application in various scenarios. Practical application in real-life situations, coupled with follow-up sessions, reinforces learning and enhances the application of DISC principles in both personal and professional contexts.
