Requirements for Master Trainers
SIPP-TCAFP
The Self-paced Instructor Preparation Package for Tai Chi for Arthritis (SIPP-TCAFP) is available for free to all Master Trainers. Please start your preparation as soon as possible and allow suitable time to complete the material. Even for experienced practitioners, the more time you can allocate to it, the more you can gain from it.
SIPP Certificate of Completion
After completing a SIPP, you will receive a SIPP Certificate of Completion. Please submit your SIPP-TCAFP Certificate at least two weeks before the workshop.
SIPP Certificates of Completion are valid for 2 years from issuance. If you had already previously completed SIPP-TCAFP, please check to see if your certificate is still valid, i.e., issued 14th November 2024 onwards (2 years before this 2026 Workshop). As a Master Trainer, we recommend you complete the latest version of SIPP (2026) and receive an updated certificate of completion. Either way, please ensure you submit a valid certificate.

If you are updating TCA Suite, you will also receive complimentary 1-year access to TCA2 and STCA online lessons.The relevant links will be included in your confirmation e-mail. Please prepare by completing the programs before the workshop. Note that no certificates are issued for completing TCA2 and STCA.
