Q & A: Doula Canada’s Rebranding to Doula School
We’re thrilled to announce that Doula Canada is officially rebranding as Doula School! 🎉 This change reflects our evolving commitment to providing top-tier education and support to those passionate about birth work. As Doula School, we’ll continue to offer the same high-quality training you’ve come to expect, but with an expanded focus on community, innovation, and growth within the doula profession.
Why the change? We’re rebranding to “Doula School” to better reflect our unified mission of supporting you through learning, mentorship, and professional growth. This new name represents our commitment to a shared educational journey, whether you’re just starting out or expanding your practice.
Q1: Will the courses be staying the same?
You can expect the same high-quality content and resources from Doula Training Canada. Our commitment to providing valuable, comprehensive education remains steadfast. We’ve been working tirelessly behind the scenes for the past year doing a full educational audit of all courses, making lots of updates to our core offerings. We know that this will mark some of your lessons as incomplete that were previously complete and will add some new quizzes and assignments to the courses.
Please note that if you are very close to being done your course you DO NOT need to complete the new assignments, but we feel there is much benefit in you having access to them! If you’ve just begun your journey then we’d encourage you to go back and complete them when you can. Reach out to the mentorship with questions or if you need support with these changes. Anything you’ve previously submitted we continue to have access to, even if you don’t see it in your course outline anymore!
Q2: Will my certification still be valid?
Absolutely! Your certification remains fully valid, and all courses will continue to operate as usual. The rebranding to Doula School will not affect the terms of your certification or the recognition of your credentials. Everything will remain exactly as it was when you earned your certification through Doula Canada. You can rest assured that your qualifications are still recognized and respected within the industry, with the same commitment to excellence that you’ve always experienced.
Q3: Will the requirements change for those currently enrolled in courses?
New Changes to Education Units: Previously students were required to obtain additional Education Units (EUs) to complement their learning (in addition to the doula specific content you learn in the courses). We have now added requirements for CPR/First Aid, Infection Prevention and Control (IPAC), and a Food Handling Certificate (for postpartum doulas). To align with the latest standards and ensure comprehensive training, these have been added to the certification requirements. Please review these changes to understand how they may impact your certification process and reach out to us with questions/concerns. These new additions now REPLACE the EUs needed to certify. But please note that if you were almost ready to submit your certification documents based on the former requirements we will be happy to accept that instead.
Q4: What else is changing?
Enhanced Learning Materials: We have made updates and improvements to our training materials to reflect the latest knowledge and best practices. These changes are designed to enhance your learning and provide you with the most relevant and up-to-date information. Over the coming weeks you will see many new handouts that you can use in your practice and with your clients.
Q: How can I stay updated on the latest news from Doula School?
You don’t need to do anything differently! Just keep following us on social media, stay subscribed to our newsletter, and check our website as usual. Everything will remain the same except for our new branding, and we’ll continue to keep you updated with all the latest news and developments.
