EDSE Announces Dates for Next Sex Educator Certification Training

EDSE Announces Dates for Next Sex Educator Certification Training

LOS ANGELES — Educational organization Everyone Deserves Sex Ed (EDSE) has announced the dates for its next 25-hour sex educator certification, open to adult industry members. The next training will take place in Los Angeles on April 18-19 and 25-26.

Founded by industry veteran Anne Hodder-Shipp, the EDSE certification provides a foundational understanding of human sexuality, including anatomy, gender and safer sex, in order to "transform the way professionals think about their businesses," explained a rep. "Whether working in product design and development, sales and customer service, or content production and performance, attendees are given access to the tools and information necessary to stand out from the competition with an informed, inclusive, and sex-positive perspective." 

“Adult industry professionals talk about sex almost every day, and saying the right or wrong thing can make-or-break the conversation,” notes Hodder-Shipp. “Information is empowerment, and I want industry professionals to feel comfortable and confident doing their jobs while providing the best customer service possible. The EDSE certification not only helps reduce misinformation and personal bias from the process but also gives adult companies a way to differentiate themselves in this competitive industry.”

EDSE’s mission is to make accurate, unbiased and LBGTQIA+ inclusive sexuality information available to as many communities as possible. Over the course of two weekends, EDSE attendees will learn key information about human sexuality, intimate health, consent and communication skills, and be trained to respond to sex-related questions in a concise and nonjudgmental manner. 

“Walking in, I thought I knew my fair share, but Anne and her speakers opened my eyes to a lot — from being cognizant of my own judgments to how to be a better advocate for my fellow human beings,” said Kerin De Francis, director of sales at Doc Johnson. “I think parents, teachers and just about anyone in any kind of authoritative position could really benefit from working with EDSE.”

EDSE offers corporate rates to companies who want to certify several employees or their entire staff. The certification process can be hosted in the companies’ own offices, and EDSE can further customize the curriculum according to clients’ specific needs.
