The WiLD Toolkit Knowledge Exam is a simple process for testing your knowledge regarding the underlying theory and contents of the Tools in the WiLD Toolkit. It is not intended as an examination of your coaching knowledge or ability to facilitate conversations using the Toolkit, but an important first step that can then be used to generate understanding and a deeper integration of the information behind the Tools themselves as you develop or invest in the development of others.

Certified WiLD Toolkit Facilitators must correctly answer 29 of the 30 questions to become an Associate Coach.

The exam may be repeated up to three times. If you do not pass after three attempts, it may be retaken in two weeks after further WiLD Toolkit study.
