    Licensing

    All organizations  offering SMRC Programs must be licensed.  There are  different types of licenses depending on the needs of different organizations.

    Training

    Organizations must have trained Leaders and Trainers for any of our programs.

    Program Promotion

    Can we still refer to the workshops as “Stanford” programs?

    • No. Stanford requires that the Stanford name and logo NOT be used for any reason.

    What words can we use to describe the workshops?

    • The only words you can use when describing the programs are “an evidence-based self-management program originally developed at Stanford University”, or “an SMRC evidence-based program originally developed at Stanford University.”
    • Certificates of completion for workshops and Leader trainings should use the above language, as well.

    Can we use the SMRC logo and Steps to Healthier Living trademark?
