Group Practice in IDL involves two complementary forms of learning:
- working with a study partner for ongoing problem-solving in applying interview recommendations to daily life, along with mutual accountability for staying on track with accreditation goals; and
- participating in online or in-person groups of parents, caregivers, coaches, practitioners, or trainers, known as IDL Salons.
Accreditation is strongly recommended to be undertaken with a study partner, as this significantly increases follow-through, integration, and overall success in the program.

- For information on forming or joining a group:
Together, these practices form one of IDL’s two Sanghas (sacred communities): the intersocial sangha of peers and groups. The other is your intrasocial sangha—the internal community of perspectives you have previously interviewed, which can offer ongoing support, guidance, and cybernetic course-correction.
