In order to qualify, a member must attend JCI Prime (soon to be replaced with JCI Presenter & JCI Trainer) and conduct a minimum of 25 hours of JCI specific training.

Bolton has been working on this since 2002. "It was a lot harder than I expected to get 25 hours of JCI training. I found it easier to do training outside of the organization, but it really helps motivate you to help out your fellow members" he commented. "I'm happy to receive this designation and will now work on getting my CNT (Certified National Trainer) status."
