The Formation Project is a year-long spiritual deepening program for “seekers of any and all paths.” At its core, it is not a skills-training course in the conventional sense, but a community-based journey of deep growth focused on meaning, belonging, spiritual longing, and personal as well as social transformation.
Based on the collected text, the project is rooted in “ancient wisdom” while also responding to the rise of contemporary spiritual communities and community innovation. Its background is connected to the broader ecosystem around the How We Gather report, Sacred Design Lab, Harvard Divinity School, and the Fetzer Institute. The program pays particular attention to people who take on pastoral, companioning, or organizing roles in emerging forms of community: they may come from settings such as yoga, meditation, dinner churches, maker spaces, CrossFit, and more, yet they all encounter community members’ deeper questions around marriage, death, parenting, and the meaning of life.
The webpage does not disclose pricing, payment methods, scholarships, admission requirements, or a specific schedule, nor does it state whether the program is online, offline, or hybrid. The only point made explicit is that it is a “year-long journey.” Therefore, when evaluated as a course product, the currently available public information is not sufficiently transparent.
Its strengths lie in its clear positioning, with an emphasis on deep community, peer support, creativity, responsibility, and the search for purpose. It also appears to have a foundation of research and practical experience: the pilot was incubated at On Being Project and went through an extended period of interviews, collaborative design, and preparation. It is likely to be highly inclusive for groups such as those who identify as “spiritual but not religious.”
The main weakness is the lack of course-style information. Key details such as module structure, learning outcomes, instructors, language, certification, and post-program support are not visible. For users looking to purchase a clearly defined course or service, this creates a relatively high decision-making cost.
It is better suited to spiritual seekers, community organizers, spiritual companions, and people who want to deepen their personal practice within a peer community. It is not suitable for those who simply want a professional certificate or a standardized course. Access from mainland China cannot be determined from the page content, so users should test access directly.
