The Academy of Modern Celebrancy Avis 

The AMC community is very supportive and friendly, particularly inside the Facebook Group. If you have a question about the coursework there will always be someone who has seen your post and can give you guidance. Due to my working schedule I only managed to attend 2 of the weekly drop-in calls but again, they are a great chance to meet others doing the same thing and bounce ideas about.

Working through the coursework gave me a lot of food for thought and I did learn things that I wouldn't have otherwise.

I think for me personally I wasn't able to engage with the group learning element as much during my time going through the wedding celebrant course due to my regular job and personal things going on. Had I been able to do that I would have gotten even more from it.

The role of a celebrant was something that I researched in detail before deciding to embark upon the training. When I came across the AMC signing up for the training made sense. The course is so detailed considering all aspects of the role of funeral celebrancy. I completed the course with a really detailed understanding of the funeral industry and the role of a celebrant within that. My mentor was brilliant and supported me through my final stages of the training. Thank you all at AMC.

I've completed weddings and namings now - privileged to have worked with two mentors, veterans in their field. got a bit emotional after receiving such positive feedback on Namings from Julie - it's given me exactly the push I need to make this business a reality!

My experience with AMC has been inspiring. I admit I was worried about it all being online, but, from day one, I felt welcomed into a supportive and encouraging learning environment.
AMC manages to strike the tricky balance between professionalism and heart. The training didn’t just teach the technical elements of being a celebrant, it also nurtured compassion and authenticity. A huge bonus was finding my voice again after years of being at the bottom of that family pile, looking after everyone else!
The tutors were approachable and genuinely invested in my growth, offering feedback that was both constructive and uplifting. A special mention goes to Christine, Julie and Helen for all their help and kindness.
Whilst I've been with AMC this past year, I've seen inside a business that is passionate about maintaining high standards whilst empowering its students to develop their own unique talents. I’m leaving the course not only qualified, but confident and excited as I begin my journey as a celebrant.
If you’re looking for a career that combines creativity and meaningful connection, I couldn’t recommend AMC highly enough. Don't hesitate - get on with it!

All I can say is, please do this, for you! As an expat, and a mum of two under three. I had somewhat lost myself. A friend sent me a link to an AMC Facebook ad the best part of two years ago and although I was intrigued, I kept putting off doing anything about it.

Now isn’t the right time. I’m busy with the kids. I don’t have the right experience.

Everything I told myself was a simply an excuse. Excuses that were holding me back from making a decision, that would set me on a path to regaining my sense of self.

I’m not sure what pushed me over the line, but I eventually decided to enrol. That was in September and I have just completed the course.

I feel invigorated and excited for the future. My mentor was absolutely priceless, the course material was invaluable and the ongoing support is fantastic.

I truly can’t wait for where this career will take me and my family.

Just go for it. Your future self will thank you for it.

The training is excellent. The trainers impart so much knowledge. My mentor, Roz, filled me with confidence.

I loved training with the AMC. They are an incredible group of celebrants, all working themselves and teaching and training others. So everything you are learning is from experience. You can take the courses online and fit it around other work and family, which is just fantastic. The support during and after graduating is truly a gift. I felt and feel so held by everyone at The AMC

I have enjoyed every moment of my wedding celebrant training with the AMC. The online modules are comprehensive, with videos and workbooks to guide you, backed up by a supportive online network if you have any questions etc. The standout experience for me was moving into the mentor led phase of the training. Wow, having access to people living and breathing life as celebrants was amazing. If you are contemplating taking this step into the wonderful world of celebrancy, I highly recommend taking that journey with the AMC. I am beyond excited ! as I now launch my business and so glad I made the investment in this training. Here we go ……

From the very beginning I knew I had made the best decision of my life to train with AMC and join this wonderful community of Celebrants. My learning experience was joyful, motivating, sometimes intense but always supportive . The mentors are all amazing celebrants themselves so they have walked the same walk as us newbies. Their support and guidance is invaluable , Marcia got me over the finishing line to graduation ..
Training with AMC has given me the perfect foundation and skills to begin my new life as a Celebrant. Thank you !

There are lots of celebrant courses out there and I spent some time researching them all before choosing the Master Celebrant Training with AMC, and I'm glad I did: it was absolutely worth it. The course gives a comprehensive insight into all aspects of being a celebrant, including the business and marketing side and the learning resources are really well put together and regularly refreshed. The mentors are very knowledgeable and approachable, and being a student with the AMC really welcomes you in to an encouraging, progressive and professional community. From knowing very little about celebrancy at the beginning, I feel absolutely prepared and supported to become a professional independent celebrant.

The course was really top notch, on point and practical - it felt like I was being prepared for a real life situation and not just 'studying'!

When studying, you are regularly being taken out of your comfort zone. Especially with the mock funerals. But the modules prepare you for this. I love the videos from current celebrants passing on their advise and wisdom from their own experiences.

The course is excellent and support fantastic. You feel held throughout and someone always there to help if you get stuck along the way. Definitely recommend it

Great training with help.and support. The feeling you get when you come to the end of the training and your mentor says that you have passed your live is amazing.

I have now completed both the funeral and wedding certifications, and I can’t fault it.

I want to mention in particular the mentor support I have received on both occasions .
So supportive and wise !

Really comprehensive course with clear step by step guidelines while also allowing you to flourish and allow yourself to find your voice as a celebrant

From signing up to completion of 1st module (so far) couple more modules to go the entire experience had been tough,but the support and guidance has been second to none. I would highly recommend this course to anybody thinking about becoming a celebrant.

I’m doing the Master Celebrancy course and I started with the Funeral Celebrancy module. As soon as I started the first module I knew I’d made the right decision. It’s heavy on writing which I love, with five self-study modules focusing only on essays, then you start working with a mentor on writing ceremonies and more practical aspects (site visits for natural burials for example). I’m looking forward to cracking on with building my business with the support of the celebrant studio and the celebrant guild.

AMC is very well set up and I did a lot of research before choosing where to train as a Celebrant. AMC really stood out in terms of how I would learn, access to resources and a community to be part of - where we all share experiences and support each other. The course takes a little bit of navigating but just take your time and everything follows a great structure that will ensure you become a fantastic, in demand celebrant.

The support the company offers is brilliant from fellow celebrants to the staff and mentors. There's something about the study packs which makes you want to just keep going. Informative and guided, you just can't go wrong, and the learning you gain at the end of each module applies to what you will face in real life. Thank you
