Join our app teaching community
Would you like recordings of your mindfulness practices to be available on our app?
If you’re a trained mindfulness teacher, we’d like to offer you the opportunity to join our app and share your practices with our global audience, broadening the reach and impact of your work and showcasing your mindfulness teaching.
We’re one of the global field leaders in mindfulness training but we’re still a small-to-medium size charity, independent of the universities and larger institutions we work with.
As a not-for-profit organisation, we rely on the support of the communities we engage with to achieve our mission. One way to support our work is to engage with the Oxford Mindfulness app.

What happens next?
Once you’ve submitted your practice, it will be reviewed by our dedicated Quality Assessment Team.
If your practice is accepted, you will receive a notification with further details about your membership of the app and of our new members’ programme.
Please note: Practices available on the app will be reviewed on an annual basis to ensure there is a broad range of recent and relevant content for our members. We may remove practices to make space for others, if necessary.
Practices will be available on the app as soon as they are quality-assessed and approved.
Would you like to join our Quality Assessment Team?
If you would like to join our app’s Quality Assessment Team, we are currently recruiting teachers and trainers who have achieved a level of ‘proficient’ on the MBI:TAC competency assessment. If you have not been competency-assessed, we will seek two references to provide further information on your teaching level and experience.
