The AJ Novick Group, Inc. has been providing high quality programs in mental health
since 2003. Our ParentInstructor.com website and training was designed for individuals
who would like to get certified and trained to teach their own parenting or co-parenting
classes either in a group format or individually. The certification training was
designed by Ari Novick, Ph.D. and the program utilizes the highly acclaimed curriculum,
Parenting in the Twenty-First Century, 10 Tools for Better Parenting, written
by Ari Novick, Ph.D. and Martine Wehr, J.D. Dr. Novick is a licensed Marriage and
Family Therapist and has been providing approved parent education and anger management
classes for many years. In addition to our parent certification, Dr. Novick is
also the co-founder of Century Anger Management, one of the leading anger management
training organizations in the nation. He has been featured on USA Today, Fox TV,
CNN, ESPN and various other outlets. He is sought after for his expertise in behavioral

You do not need to hold a license to get trained, you simply need to have a high
school or greater education, work in the field or a related field, and complete
the 40 hour training provided by our company. We want you to succeed! In order
to do so, it is imperative that each student use their own client workbook. This
ensures that you are teaching a class and your work can never be confused as "group
therapy". Workbooks can be purchased at a discount on our website by providers
and resold to students. Most providers will make an additional profit from reselling
the workbooks and it provides a clean and structured approach to teaching the parenting
classes. Reproduction of our client workbook books is prohibited and a violation
of federal copyright law.
