BEVI Resources

By attending BEVI Certification Workshops, participants receive the most recent edition of the BEVI Test Manual, sample reports, background readings and materials, and a BEVI Certificate of Completion, which is valid for two years (i.e., recertification is required after two years). BEVI Certified Administrators also receive periodic updates about the BEVI, notification of upcoming publications, and symposia, and other relevant materials. Because institutions and organizations that subscribe to the BEVI are automatically granted membership in the International Beliefs and Values Institute (IBAVI), all of the benefits of IBAVI membership are granted to BEVI Certified Administrators (see www.ibavi.org). See BEVI Benefits for additional information. Additional information about the BEVI as well as related and relevant resources are available via the following websites and references.
