Est Training, short for Erhard Seminars Training, is a personal development program created by Werner Erhard in the 1970s. It focuses on self-awareness and personal growth through intensive workshops that encourage participants to explore their beliefs, behaviors, and relationships. The training typically spans several days and involves group discussions, exercises, and experiential learning. The program aims to help individuals gain insights into their lives and improve their communication skills. Participants often report transformative experiences, leading to increased self-confidence and a greater sense of responsibility. Est Training has influenced various personal development movements and continues to be referenced in discussions about self-improvement.
