House of Peace Virtual Training Center

What House of Peace Virtual Training Center does

House of Peace Virtual Training Center, operated by Wingfield House of Peace Publications LLC, is a virtual professional education platform delivering synchronous and asynchronous training in domestic violence intervention/treatment, coercive control, child abuse, and family court dynamics. Founded by Dr. Debra Wingfield, Ed.D., LPC (retired), the business traces its workshops back to 1988 and formally launched its virtual training center in 2007, converting decades of classroom curriculum into Zoom-delivered teleseminars limited to 12 participants per cohort, with recorded sessions distributed as MP4 video and MP3 audio plus downloadable course materials. The catalog spans more than 40 individual courses — including the 41-course Domestic Violence Intervention/Treatment Training system aligned to Colorado certification requirements, a tiered Family Court Certification Program (Entry/Intermediate/Advanced), a 12-course Coercive Control Advocacy Training delivered in partnership with Called to Peace Ministries, and specialty courses on IPSV, cognitive distortions, female offender treatment, parenting traumatized children, and abuser accountability — alongside published books and branded Interpersonal Abuse/Coercive Control Assessments with bundled consultation. Revenue is generated through per-course fees ($29–$197), a $97/month advocacy subscription, book sales on Amazon and direct channels, and assessment services, with no disclosed external funding, no enterprise contracts, and no AI/ML or developer-facing platform capabilities.
