The Beginner's Diploma Course  

Many people are interested in handwriting analysis but don't want to enroll in a full-fledged study course right away. The "Beginners' Course is a perfect way to become familiar with the fascinating science of handwriting analysis.  It teaches 40 personality traits - enough to gain personal insight into yourself and, on a basic level, to "read" other people's writings.

The 2006 Comprehensive Handwriting Analysis Course

This is very thorough course and goes far beyond most other courses in that it teaches you not only how to identify and describe personality traits, it also teaches you step by step how to write professional, marketable analyses. The course is based on the trait stroke approach and also introduces evaluated traits (combining or “stacking” traits).

Upon successful completion of the 2006 Comprehensive Course you will be fully equipped to work as a professional handwriting analyst.

The Evaluated traits course is a one-of-a-kind advanced trait stroke course that at this time, in this format, you cannot find anywhere else. 

Crépieux-Jamin, a leading French graphologist, developed the so-called “Theory of Resultants” which distinguishes between primary and secondary traits. In his book, “L’ECRITURE ET LE CARACTERE” (Paris 1889), he theorized that in a handwriting only the primary or basic traits show. The secondary or “resulting” traits have to be evaluated through combinations of primary or basic traits.

In other words, you can discover dozens of traits using clusters of basic traits - even if the primary basic trait is missing from the handwriting. How many times have you met a person that you know is sensitive, yet this does not show up in the handwriting? If you know evaluated traits, you might find sensitiveness indeed - but hidden in a cluster of evaluated traits.

If you would like to work with trait strokes, and if you are ready to move on to the next level and master the art of evaluated traits, this course is certainly for you. 

This course comes with an optional computer supplement that automatically searches for and finds evaluated traits for you.

The Intermediate course 
This course is intended for students with some prior knowledge of handwriting analysis. It uses the integrated trait stroke/holistic approach but does not go into as much depth as the Step-By-Step System of Handwriting Analysis (SSS) course.

The Step-By-Step course of handwriting analysis (SSS) 
This is a very , in-depth course designed for students who want to do professional analyses on a very comprehensive level .   

The SSS course is unique in that it integrates the gestalt method with the most important aspects of the trait stroke approach into one logical system. This allows the deepest possible insight into the personality of the writer.

The SSS course is based upon

(a) the contraction-release theory originally expounded by Klages

(b) Pulver's theory of depth as an unconscious expression of the writer's psychic and physical energy and

(c) Saudek's thesis of speed of writing as one of the foundations upon which other data rests.

Based upon the above theories, it analyzes four major com­ponents of handwriting, namely:
 

                   •        vertical movement

                   •        horizontal movement

                   •        form and

                   •        depth

The SSS course is not alone in utilizing the above theories. They are incorporated to a greater or lesser degree in most contemporary graphological methods. The SSS course, however, combines all of these fundamental theories methodically in one logical system.

The SSS course adheres to the principles of Otto Junge's Rational Graphology in that it is based strictly upon objective measure­ments and ratings and assigns equal quantitative weight to each handwriting component.

The SSS course differs from Rational Graphology in that it is more systematically organized. Junge designed 100 “Expression Tables” and evaluated between ten and twenty variables for one personality trait. The various traits were grouped in five syndromes with the smallest syndrome containing five and the largest encompassing forty-two characteristics. The SSS consistently evaluates ten components per trait. The traits are then grouped in eight syndromes of five traits each.  

The SSS course is one-of-a-kind. 

Unlike many other courses on the market, it is not a compilation or

takeoff on other handwriting analysis materials or courses and it does

 not duplicate other training programs. 

It is the only course that joins together 

the gestalt method and the trait stroke approach into 

one unique system.

The SSS course is complete

The SSS differs from most others methods in that it continues where they leave off. Most schools instruct how to score a handwriting but little practical help is given in actually writing the analysis. In contrast, the SSS goes all the way. It guides the analyst step by step from scoring the writing to the completed analysis report. It is designed in a logical sequence so that by executing six steps the analyst automatically produces an accurate, objective analysis every time.

An option computer supplement is available for the SSS that takes care of most of the scoring/measurement chores and also writes an analysis outline.

Certification

All courses are certification courses. Students who successfully complete the certification requirements will be awarded a beautiful diploma.

There is no extra charge for the diploma.

Some “schools” charge a hefty fee for the diploma implying to the student that if they will pay an extra fee, they will get a certificate that means more than the one that is issued for free. In fact, the implication is that somehow the state approves the certification, when this is not true at all.

How much does it all cost?
