Our CCS Cards have been used all over the world, in pretty much every industry. For over 25 years, we have been developing and refining simple, reliable strategies for how best to use this powerful tool to improve communication in business, education, therapeutic and social settings.


“CCS Cards are powerful, elegant and easy to use tools that take communication to a whole new level. And with no complicated training, no tricks, no aversion and no fear.”
Dr Stephanie Burns, Learning and behaviour change expert


The professionally endorsed Certified CCS Practitioner Program is your opportunity to learn directly from the developers and join an elite group of communication professionals.

During your certification, you will have hands-on experience of our trusted and tested processes to enable you to confidently use the CCS to do what it does best:

  • Improve listening, sharing, group participation and collaboration
  • Easily create meaningful team visions, missions and values
  • Build trust, psychological safety, open and honest communication, and emotional connection
  • Ease difficult conversations, resolve conflict, improve relationships
  • Empower one-on-one coaching, encourage disclosure
  • Stimulate creativity and promote self-discovery.
