FAQ

Why is the ChopraTeachers.com website going away?

For over 15 years, www.choprateachers.com has supported our community, but the platform’s technology, security, and infrastructure are now significantly outdated. Transitioning to the Gaja Collective platform ensures all your learning materials and teaching resources are housed in one secure, modern space—easily accessible with a single login.
I received an email about the new mantra calculator for certified meditation teachers. Why is everything moving?

A few months ago, Gaja Collective became the official home for Chopra Certifications, Courses, and Alumni Support. As we continue the transition from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN), we are working on improving and updating teacher resources and support to better serve you. Part of that is moving off of outdated systems and consolidating all of your learning materials, resources, and tools on the Gaja Collective platform.
What about courses and certifications I took through Chopra or IIN? Will I be able to access those?

Courses you have been accessing on learn.chopra.com are being moved over to the Gaja Collective platform this week. You will see your learning materials on your Dashboard along with your teacher resources. Please note that your course progress is not transferring from IIN to Gaja. If you have not finished a Chopra certification program and are within the completion period outlined in your enrollment agreement, contact Chopra IIN Support at [email protected] to discuss your options.

If you would like to re-enroll in a Chopra program for a discounted fee, email [email protected] and our admissions team will assist you.

Where can I access my certificate or NBHWC letter?

Visit learn.chopra.com and download your course completion certificates and NBHWC letters from your course before the end of October 2025. After that, IIN will no longer be able to issue your certificates.
What will happen to the directory at ChopraTeachers.com?

The current directory will be retired. The Gaja team is getting to work imagining a new directory that is modern, searchable, kept up to date, and supportive to showcasing the amazing offerings of our teachers and coaches. Stay tuned!
I use an @choprateachers.com email address. Will this be impacted?

These email addresses will be retired by March 1, 2026. These systems are not part of Gaja Collective and we will be unable to support you with any email system issues. We strongly recommend you set up a new email address and migrate away from your @choprateachers.com email account.
What will happen with the digital badges and certificates on Accredible?

Accredible is a platform used by IIN, not Gaja Collective. Digital certificates and badges issued by IIN will remain accessible through your Accredible account for those applicable. Account access details were previously sent via email—please be sure to check your spam, junk, and promotions folders for the email.

How can I change the email address or other personal information associated with my Gaja Collective account?

I took my Chopra Teacher Training in person. Will I have online course materials?
