Association Montessori Internationale (AMI) approves a unique range of courses that cover many aspects of human activity throughout life. The unique archives and deep institutional knowledge that AMI holds in the context of Maria Montessori’s teaching, philosophy and education principles provides a valuable platform for new developments. AMI not only connects Montessori to the world but ensures that trainers and training are “grounded in experience from the past but fit for the future.”
