# What can I do as a Guide? Can I teach classes? Host retreats? Offer sessions?

While the Guides Programme is not a training, it does offer a generous opportunity for those who feel called to share the Gene Keys in a professional context. **Having completed this course, you will be empowered to share any aspect of the Gene Keys that you have studied with us.**

This comprehensive programme gives you the creative freedom, skills and experience necessary to create a flourishing business with the Gene Keys. Upon completion, you will be invited to sign the Guides Agreement for sharing the Gene Keys in a professional context. You may [preview the Guides Agreement](https://genekeyspublishing.app.box.com/s/4ye2k4076sioffje8qp9opaor7xhuwi7) for more context on the publishing agreement included at the end of this programme.

**This programme does not qualify you as a ‘teacher’. **The Gene Keys is a self-illuminating voyage and does not use the word ‘teacher’.
