KonTerra Resilience Services

Practical, evidence-based resilience training—grounded in personal insight.

The KIRB® Course

The KIRB® Course is a self-paced, online learning experience that helps people understand how stress is showing up in their lives and learn practical ways to strengthen resilience and wellbeing.

The course combines the KonTerra Inventory of Resilience Builders® (KIRB®) with short, focused video lessons that guide participants from insight to action—helping them identify priorities, adjust habits, and make changes that are realistic and sustainable.

Why the KIRB® Course

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.

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® Report

Each participant receives a personalized PDF report that highlights:

  • Your stress, high-risk coping, and resilience factor scores
  • A visual guide to your current resilience profile
  • Detailed advice on building resilience in priority areas for growth

3. Complete the KIRB® Course

Participants then complete a self-paced online course made up of 18 short video lessons, supported by reflection prompts and practical tools. The course helps participants:

  • Reflect on their KIRB® results
  • Understand how coping strategies, habits, stress, and resilience interact
  • Learn evidence-based strategies to strengthen resilience
  • Set intentions to make small, achievable changes that support wellbeing over time

The KIRB® explores behaviors and experiences across ten resilience-building areas:

What Participants Will Learn

By completing the KIRB® Course, participants will learn:

  • More about their current stress levels and common coping patterns
  • Where they already have strong resilience foundations
  • Which areas may need attention right now
  • How to build helpful habits—and break unhelpful ones
  • How to set realistic self-care and resilience priorities

The emphasis is on progress, not perfection.
