The West Coast Institute for Studies in Anthroposophy is a training institute that provides programs and courses for individuals who wish to learn more about anthroposophy as described by the founder, Rudolf Steiner.
‘The consciousness of one’s humanity’, according to Rudolf Steiner, stands at the opening of the 21st century. Anthroposophy is a way of knowing ourselves as human beings. Grounded in an understanding of human destiny, Steiner’s life and work embraces the fields of education, the arts, sciences, medicine, banking, biodynamic agriculture, and social and religious renewal. The courses offered by the West Coast Institute for Studies in Anthroposophy arise out of indications given by Rudolf Steiner in these various fields, and are open to all who seek to widen and deepen their consciousness of what it means to be human in our time.
Currently the West Coast Institute offers a four-year, part time Waldorf Grades Teacher Education Program, a two-year, part time Waldorf Early Childhood Teacher Education Program and two one-week courses on the older child in the kindergarten.
