Who and What is C3 Training?
C3 Training was incorporated in April 2003 to help people get great results,
and live happy, fulfilling lives.
We believe that the way to get great results is to learn what we don't know
about ourselves, so that we can change or break set behaviour patterns,
and set goals for what we do really want. The courses developed 25 years
ago by Context Associated helps people to get what they say they want. C3
Training provides The Excellence Series: The Pursuit of Excellence, The
Wall, The Advancement of Excellence and many other programs including Mastery.
These are not just personal development courses, they will help you have
more fulfilling careers, more satisfying relationships, set goals, be more
successful, have more fun, and enjoy life!
Our Name
At C3 we believe that the 3 essential elements for anyone to live a rich, and fulfilling life are:
- COMMITMENT: Commit to living a rich fulfilled life
- CLARITY: Get very clear on what you want.
- CONGRUENCY: Show up in life, as who you really are.
We follow these principles in running our business and are committed to helping you apply them to your life.
Founders
Context Associated is now Context InternationalRandy Revell
Over 30 years ago, Randy and Judy Revell became pioneers and leaders in the field of self-awareness education. One of Randy’s distinctive qualities was his ability to apply diverse experiences and knowledge to his own life. This integration is a cornerstone of The Excellence Series and was also a driving force behind Randy’s personal, professional, and financial success. In other words—he practiced what he preached! He knew from his own experience that his ideas about abundance, effectiveness and creating excellence could generate amazing results for people across all aspects of life. Click here to read more...

He admits he was a serious skeptic at first, but he was willing to go to
an intro session and find out what all the fuss was about. After the intro
he decided to sign up for the Pursuit of Excellence with the intention of
claiming the money back guarantee. Well, needless to say, he didn't ask
for his money back, he signed up for the next course! He went on to take
The Wall, and the Advancement of Excellence.
Since Sept 1993, Tim has taken every Context program, including Mastery levels 1 and 2, and 21st Century Leadership. After concluding his courses he chose to lead 21st Century Leadership and the Advancement of Excellence, and has also volunteered as an assistant in several of these programs.

Barb Vermassen
Barb was introduced to the Pursuit of Excellence through a work colleague. While it sounded intriguing to her, she was quite uncertain about what she was getting into. However, making the decision to embark on this journey was one of the best decisions she’s ever made. The course had a profound and positive effect on Barb’s life both personally and professionally. She completed the Pursuit of Excellence in November 2006 then moved through the rest of the series. By this time, her husband, seeing the positive results she was achieving decided to start and complete the series himself.
For the last 3 years Barb has enjoyed the benefits of the work she’s done and is now committed to sharing this opportunity with others. Having stayed in touch with many of the people she met through the courses as well as assisting the courses has reinforced how incredibly powerful they are in transforming lives.
Barb lives happily in Kelowna, BC with her husband, Grant. She is passionate about yoga, hiking, traveling, gardening and food & wine!
