Program Outline/Syllabus
Steps to Become an LVE Distance Facilitator –
Improving the quality from which my life is lived is the purpose of Living Values. The values common to all humanity are defined as;
Peace, Love, Respect, Tolerance, Responsibility, Honesty, Humility, Happiness, Cooperation, Simplicity, Freedom, and Unity.
Time required: Take as long as you need or, simply engage the values over a 12 week period and play at unravelling the qualities and essence of one of the Values each week which are intrinsic to our behavior, dictate our actions and most importantly, influence our relationships with Self, others and the environment in which we live.
No one is judging. The personal development aspect becomes quickly apparent through the engagement of the activities as we see where we are strong in our values or, where we fall short, and gives us the opportunity to make adjustments.
Through engaging the recommended two activities each week you will have engaged a wide spectrum of 24 personal interactions, represent for us as individuals, in the role of parents, or teachers in classroom, way-showers of young people an immensely valuable process.
Values Activities, when done in tandem with LVE Self-Reflection allows us to better see the truth of our life when lived from the balance of all the Values. With a better understanding of myself, I can make right choices, effecting necessary change to re-balance my life.

For over 25 years, Living Values Education, LVE has touched individuals, schools, universities and other organisations in over 80 countries, extending beyond formal education to day-care centres, youth clubs, parent groups, community associations, businesses, centres for children in difficult circumstances, refugee camps and prisons.
The LVE Approach is non-prescriptive and its underlying concept of the central role that values play in all human endeavour and activity, whether personal, social or communal, continues to find resonance and touch hearts and minds in a multitude of cultural contexts. In many countries, individuals have wished to share LVE with their families, friends, colleagues and others, sometimes in a personal capacity as volunteers and sometimes organisationally. In both cases they may apply to ALIVE, which accepts organisations as members (also known as Associates) and recognises individuals as Focal Points for LVE.
