Transformative Learning Foundation
TLF Transforms
Due to the unmistakable transformation in the participants of the NLR Certificate program and in close collaboration and communication with our partners at Ubiquity, TLF now offers a Dual Certificate Program. Completion of the 12-month sychronous virtual program meets the requirements to take graduate courses at Ubiquity and award participants a practitioner’s certificate in Natural Learning Relationships.
Next cohort launches May 2026 through May of 2027.

Testimonials
“The Natural Learning Relationships Certification program is quietly transformative. At first, the concepts seem simple, but as I sat with them, they unfolded through every field of knowing, deepening my understanding of myself, others, and the relationships that connect us. Ba and Josette create an open, accepting space that draws out each participant’s own wisdom in the most natural way. It’s a rare kind of learning experience, thoughtful, human, and enduring.”
Paul Noonan, 2025-2026 cohort participant
“Children and their teachers finally have the alternative to test-driven learning we’ve been waiting for. Seeing the world through my students’ eyes with Natural Learning Relationships, I can create learning to engage them fully as our relationships fill with understanding. The Transformative Learning Foundation courses provide me the context and confidence I need to share this work with colleagues and the public at large.”
John Creger, 2025-2026 cohort participant
Embodied, radiant learning with social, ethical, and transformative impact
Who We Are
Transformative Learning Foundation is a non-profit organization with a mission of revolutionizing the form and execution of all aspects of education. By actualizing transformative learning experiences, we aim to create a global community of enlightened, adaptable, and empathetic individuals who contribute to a more just, sustainable, and interconnected world.
We offer virtual synchronous courses and a certificate program in Transformative Learning. In partnership with Ubiquity University, our certificate can be used to obtain a low-cost MA, PhD, or MA+PhD combination.
Affordable.
Transformative Learning Foundation is committed to offering affordable, high quality education free of the financial constraints of mainstream Universities and their degrading alliance with banks and government.
Traditional education has failed to bring forth income equity, equality to people of color and women, and relational appreciation for Earth and one another. It is time to move on!
TLF offers quality courses taught by faculty who are experts and practitioners in their field without burdening our students financially. The combined cost of the Certificate Program and the Master’s degree through our alliance with Ubiquity University is approximately 20% less than the cost of a traditional Master’s degree, and the cost of the combined PhD program is approximately 10% less than a traditional PhD (source: Education Data Initiative). Please visit our Financial Information page for a detailed breakdown of costs and affordability information.
Relational.
TLF’s educational design is centered on trust and relationships. Students benefit from continuous advisor support and small class sizes, typically a 7 to 1 ratio of students to faculty.
Our faculty are dedicated to experiential, emergent, and self-directed learning for all class participants. Our classes are held synchronously, with all students and faculty in each course meeting together in real time. This face-to-face contact creates a safe and trusting environment for the actualization of strong relationships.
Partnership with Ubiquity University
