One of the perks of being a certified trainer is that you receive one year of digital membership. You do not need to purchase a ZERO TO THREE membership separately. This is stated during enrollment and your trainer certification overview. If you do not see membership on your account once you have been awarded certification, please email trainercertification@zerotothree.org and we are happy to correct it. Please note that ZERO TO THREE does not refund payments for membership, however, membership is transferrable.
