About Our Pricing

"Understanding the other persons’ needs does not mean you have to give up on your own needs."

— Marshall Rosenberg, PhD and creator of NVC

The NVC Academy is an online organization dedicated to supporting as many people as possible in learning and deepening their Nonviolent Communication (NVC) consciousness. We strive to keep the cost of our programs as low as possible while offering a variety of learning options, including some that are free of charge.

Because our community is global, we thoughtfully consider factors such as:

  • The wide range of income levels around the world
  • Differences in currency value relative to the U.S. dollar
  • The real costs of operating a sustainable organization

Ultimately, our pricing reflects an effort to balance and care for the needs of many groups, including:

  • Our NVC Library members and broader community, for access, choice, trust, value, and consistency
  • Our trainers, for sustainability, respect, and joy in their work
  • Our team members, for sustainability, ease, and well-being
  • The NVC Academy itself, for long-term viability and stability

Discounts, Sliding Scale, and Support Requests

We regularly receive requests for discounts, alternative payment arrangements, or refunds due to a wide variety of personal circumstances.

We consider these requests carefully. Our intention is to support the people in our community while also sustaining the NVC Academy and the trainers who make this work possible.

Community Support Fund

With all of this in mind, we created the Community Support Fund as a way for our community to support one another. This fund exists so people may:

  • Choose to contribute financially toward others’ registrations, and/or
  • Request financial support to more easily access NVC Academy resources

Our hope is that, by working together, all who are interested will be able to access NVC trainings, regardless of income level or geographic location.

Community Support Fund Options

We typically reply to support requests within 24 hours.
