AMI 3-6 Montessori
Teacher Training COURSE

Build a rewarding career in
EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATIOn

Sketches Montessori School, Noida has invited Supraja Montessori Study Centre, Chennai, to bring AMI Montessori 3-6 Diploma course to Delhi NCR, enabling the return of the internationally recognized AMI Teacher Training to Delhi NCR after a 67-year hiatus — the last course in the region was held in 1959! Our efforts are also supported by Vivek High Montessori Institute, Chandigarh. The AMI diploma is globally respected for its rigor, authenticity, and high standards, marking an important step in strengthening the Montessori Education movement in Delhi NCR.

Since 2004, the team at Supraja has responded to Chennai’s need for high-quality Montessori teacher training through a strong integration of theory and practice. Drawing on this experience, they support the growth of Montessori training in other cities by walking alongside new teams until they are ready to stand independently. Supraja Montessori Study Centre is affiliated to the Association Montessori Internationale (AMI) - a global authority founded in 1929 by Dr. Maria Montessori, that preserves her scientific and philosophical legacy while ensuring rigorous international standards in Montessori training and certification.

The course is planned in a modular format across three summers (May/June 2026, May/June 2027 and May/June 2028), on-site at Sketches Montessori School in Noida. We look forward to releasing the formal announcement and registration details shortly. In the meantime, if you are interested in taking the course, please indicate your interest below so we can ensure you are included in the announcement circulation as soon as it is made.
