PLS Framework Certification Training
PLS Practitioner and Educator Training
Adult Leadership, Conflict Resolution, Emotional Support and Cooperation
-In Relationships with Children
-At Home, in Kindergartens, and in Schools
The PLS Framework (Positive Learning Spirals) is a practical, structured approach to conflict resolution, emotional regulation, and developmentally supportive leadership in relationships with children. Developed by Hans Holter Solhjell, the framework has been used for over 15 years in kindergartens, schools, and families in Norway.
Now, you can join the international certification program — whether you’re a parent, educator, or professional working with children.
The certification training gives you clear, practical models and skills to handle even the most challenging moments — aggression, escalation, relational breakdowns — and turn them into learning opportunities.
- Step-by-step guidance through the five-phase PLS model
- Concrete tools for regulation support, limit-setting, and repair
- A developmentally grounded, trauma-sensitive approach
- Visual models, reflection tools, and real-life case work
I am Hans Holter Solhjell, the developer of the PLS Framework and its broad set of systemic and skill based practical educational models. As a visitor on this page, you might know me as a body-oriented trauma-therapist, TRE trainer and as the developer of The Response Funnel Model. This one pillar of my work.
Another pillar is the PLS framework, developed over 20 years as a parent, parenting coach and conflict resolution trainer for kindergartens and schools. This part of my work is presented on the Famlab website, where you will find all the information about the PLS Certfication Training.
