The KIRB® Course: Resilience Essentials for Everyday Life
The KIRB + Resilience Essentials Online Course offers organizations a flexible, self-paced way to help staff understand how stress is showing up in their lives and learn practical ways to strengthen resilience and wellbeing.
Participants complete the KIRB, receive their confidential personal Assessment Report, and then work through Resilience Essentials for Everyday Life—18 short, focused video lessons that help them move from insight to action by identifying priorities, adjusting habits, and making changes that are realistic and sustainable.
Why Combine the KIRB® with Online Learning?
Many wellbeing programs offer general advice that can feel disconnected from people’s real lives or work demands. The KIRB Course takes a different approach.
It starts with personalized insight, then provides clear, practical guidance on what to do with that information.
Participants don’t just learn about resilience—they learn how their stress patterns, habits, and coping strategies affect wellbeing, and where to focus effort for the greatest impact.
When the Online Course Is a Good Fit
The KIRB + Resilience Essentials Online Course is a good fit for organizations that want to give staff flexibility in when and how they engage with resilience learning.
This option can work particularly well when:
- Staff are spread across multiple time zones, or work schedules
- It is very difficult to bring groups or teams together for a live facilitated session
- Organizations want participants to work through the material privately and at their own pace
- Participants may benefit from returning to the course over time as they reflect on their KIRB results and put strategies into practice
- Organizations want a scalable way to provide a consistent resilience learning experience across larger or dispersed groups
Participants have 12 months of access to the online course, allowing them to complete it in one sitting or return to the content, tools, and reflection activities over time.
What Participants Do
Participants move through the course in three simple steps:
1. Complete the KIRB Assessment: Participants complete the KIRB, a research-informed assessment that looks at behaviors and experiences across 10 key areas shown to support resilience.
2. Review their personal KIRB Assessment Report: Each participant receives a personalized PDF report that provides:
3. Complete Resilience Essentials for Everyday Life. Participants then complete a self-paced online course made up of 18 short video lessons, supported by reflection prompts and practical tools. The 50-minute course helps participants:
The emphasis is on progress, not perfection.

Additional Support
Organizations can also add facilitated support to deepen learning and application, including:
- KIRB Group Debrief — a facilitated session to help a small group make sense of results and identify priorities
- Individual KIRB Consultation — a one-on-one session for a participant who wants to explore their results in greater depth
Organizations looking for a facilitated team learning experience rather than self-paced online learning can choose the KIRB + Resilience Essentials Workshop pathway.
For Groups and Organizations: The Aggregated Insights Report
When 10 or more people in a team or organization complete the KIRB, the organization receives an Aggregated Insights Report — a group-level picture of current stress, coping, and resilience patterns.
The report includes:
- Stress levels — average stress and how scores are distributed across the group
- High-risk coping — the percentage of participants reporting potentially harmful coping strategies
- All 10 resilience factors — group-level scores highlighting shared strengths and areas for growth
- Tailored recommendations — prioritized suggestions for where to focus support, training, or broader organizational attention
Individual results remain completely confidential. Organizations receive only aggregated data; no individual-level results are shared.
The Aggregated Insights Report can help organizations identify shared strengths and priorities and guide future wellbeing and resilience initiatives.
