With the Charter for Compassion at the heart of all we do, we invite all people to join us in making compassion the driving force as we work to alleviate the suffering of our fellow beings and help create a just economy and a peaceful global community. Our courses are authored by uniquely skilled contributors who share tools and strategies to cultivate self-compassion, compassion for others, and compassionate action. CEI is supported by tuition costs and as an arm of the Charter for Compassion, CEI contributes its net income to support the operations of the Charter.

The offerings of the Charter for Compassion Institute are in three categories: Signature courses, Featured courses and On-Demand Courses.

Signature2The Charter signature courses are designed to explore the complexities of compassion from various perspectives. Compassion is a humongous topic that has been around for thousands of years, dating back to the philosophy of Confucius. The Essence of Compassion is one of four courses the Charter for Compassion Education Institute will be offering on the topic of compassion. While The Essence of Compassion is the recommended first course in our signature series, the other courses to follow will be on The Charter for Compassion and its global work, The Science of Kindness and Compassion, and Creating a Compassionate Action Plan.

 Featured2The work of the Charter of Compassion is concerned with understanding and acting on compassion for self, others and the earth. Therefore Featured Courses are designed to augment development in the context of these three areas. The objectives of each course are skill based and help answer pertinent questions of the theme being presented.
