The three service-tier courses — Sleep Health Manager, Certified Sleep Coach (Foundation / Advanced), and International Sleep Therapist — together form the sleep-health service talent track. Upon completing the foundational courses, eligible graduates may apply to the Sleepist pre-admission track. Each stage is an independent loop with no forced upgrade.
Note: The curriculum emphasizes systemic knowledge, technical frameworks, product-scenario awareness, compliance boundaries, and ecosystem cooperation capability. It does not train medical practitioners and is not a substitute for doctors, psychotherapists, dietitians, or other professional roles; it adheres to no diagnosis, no treatment, and no efficacy promises.
Each stage is an independent loop; learners may choose to stay or advance according to their own circumstances, with no forced-upgrade pressure.
