Certified Sexual Health Educators are trained through the Options for Sexual Health Educator Certification program. Shift Educators facilitate valuable sexual health education in the community, with a specialty in supporting vulnerable populations. It is our belief that sexual health education involves learning about more than just the act of sex. Topics like body knowledge, healthy relationships, online safety, and consent are inextricably linked to intimacy. We offer current, relevant, and adaptable lessons to typical youth and their teachers; and to diverse learners, caregivers and teachers of diverse learners.
