“This is the first training that actually made sense of what’s happening in my classroom — and in me. I used to feel like I was just firefighting behaviour. Now I know how to track my own stress and help kids regulate without escalating things.”

“We’re constantly taught how to look after patients, but no one ever taught me how to look after myself. This training helped me understand my own nervous system and gave me simple tools I can use between patients. It’s made a massive difference.”

— Renee L., Aboriginal Education Worker

“The Survival Animals helped our team understand complex trauma in a way that finally clicked. Kids aren’t being bad — they’re in survival mode. This course gave us a shared language and clear tools to respond instead of react.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at info@trackingbetter.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Who is this course for?

This training is designed for educators, healthcare workers, social workers, youth workers, and anyone in a helping role who wants to care for others without burning out. You don’t need prior knowledge of trauma theory — just curiosity and compassion.

Do I need to complete all five courses in order?

No — each course stands on its own. But they do build on each other, so we recommend starting with Pulsecheck 1 and working through the bundle at your own pace.

How long will I have access to the courses?

You’ll have 12 months of access to all five courses — plenty of time to work through them at your own pace, revisit the material, and deepen your learning.

How long will it take me to complete the bundle?

Each course takes around 3 hours total, depending on how deeply you engage with the material. Most people spread it out over a few weeks. Many come back for a refresher.

What’s included in the bonus “Survival Animals” course?

It’s a creative, practical framework that helps you understand stress behaviours through animal metaphors — especially useful for working with children, teams, or communities experiencing complex trauma.

Is there any live support or supervision?

Yes! When you join the bundle, you’re invited to attend fortnightly Live Lab sessions with Dr. Deeta Kimber — a chance to apply the tools to real-life situations and ask questions in a supportive space.

Can I get a payment plan?

We’re working on that. If you’d prefer to pay in instalments, just email us and we’ll do our best to sort something out.

Will I receive a certificate of completion?

Yes — each course includes a certificate of completion that you can download and use as evidence of professional development or CPD hours. The full bundle gives you five certificates, one for each course.

Can this training be delivered as part of whole-school or workplace professional development?

Yes — the Polyvagal Pivot Bundle can be delivered to staff teams across schools, clinics, or organisations. We offer group access options and can tailor the format to suit your team’s needs.

Do you offer live training or facilitation alongside the course?

Yes — we offer hybrid learning that combines the self-paced course with live group supervision sessions. These are interactive, case-based, and focused on applying the tools in your real setting.

How does hybrid learning work?

Your team completes the online modules in their own time. Then we meet live (in person or on Zoom) to apply the learning to real challenges — with structured supervision, problem-solving, and shared language around stress and regulation.

Can we get a quote for a group licence or partnership?

Absolutely — just get in touch via email and we’ll provide a tailored quote based on the size of your team, training needs, and whether you want facilitation included.

How is this different from other trauma-informed training?

Most trauma training focuses on theory or behaviour management — this course is different. It’s grounded in Polyvagal Theory and helps staff understand their own nervous system first, so they can regulate themselves and then support others.

It’s practical, strengths-based, and designed for real people in real settings — with tools that work in classrooms, clinics, and communities. And unlike one-off PD, this training includes ongoing support through Live Lab sessions and a clear developmental framework for applying what you’ve learned.
