Welcome to the
International Montessori Training Institute!

Bring your passion and positivity for our future.

We are at a powerful time in our human story where adolescents around the globe are calling upon us for change, and leading the way to a brighter, more hopeful future. As their voices are empowered, we must continue to expand our own capacity to serve as their guides during adolescence.

Whether you join us for our high-fidelity, rigorous AMI 12-18 Diploma Course, an AMI 12-18 Orientation, professional webinars, or read up on adolescent news from practitioners around the world, we invite you to share your passion and positivity for this work and make a difference!
