With etiquette training in the spotlight more than ever, there has never been a better time to step into your role as a certified etiquette professional. Certification isn’t only a credential — it’s a transformational journey that equips you with the tools, confidence, and authority to build a business you love. Below, I share five powerful tools that every etiquette certification provides — each designed to help you inspire, teach, and lead with presence.

Helping You Make a Meaningful Mark on Today’s Youth

Are you thinking of embarking on a journey of teaching manners to children? 

If so, you are about to start a rewarding experience.  The world needs exactly what you have to offer.

New licensees have shared with me so many stories as to why they started their businesses. 

Teaching manners is part of our culture. Children enjoy and benefit from the confidence of knowing how to behave in all social situations. 

Every child deserves to learn good manners.

2.Do you want to make it easy and purchase a total start-up program that has absolutely everything you need?

3.Do you want an expert to show you the way?

If you have the desire to teach manners to children, I want to help guide you through the process. 

These 5 Powerful Tools Will Help You Discover How Our Etiquette Certification Program Assists You in Getting a FAST START. 

A new licensee had her first training call today. She chose the video option.  Even though it was her first call, we had the chance to talk about all of her ideas on where she wanted to offer her manners programs.  Later this week we will have her second call.  She is in the works of using our templates to propose a program for a nine-week after-school workshop.

Another licensee who has almost completed her certification wants to focus on preschool.  In fact, this licensee already has submitted a proposal to a library in her community. 

This brings us to the first tool….

Testimonial from a Current Manners To Go, Licensee

“Thanks to Manners To Go, the last three years have provided experiences that I would have never encountered.  

MTG has been the vehicle that put my passion for equipping youth with valuable life skills into motion. 

I have learned from a variety of enriching instructional opportunities over the last few years including private instruction, country clubs,  an inner-city behavioral program, after-school programs, scout troops, and much more!   

There is something so rewarding about seeing a student, the outgoing and talkative or quiet and reserved alike, gain confidence as they learn and apply the tools to navigate an otherwise intimidating social situation with ease”.

I was looking for charm school type material for my after school program for girls, and came upon the Manners To Go website. It was like finding a treasure trove of “what-to-do(s)” and “how-to-do(s)” on manners for children. It was more that I could have imagined finding. It is, without a doubt, one of the best decisions I have ever made.
