Nope! It's 'challenge by choice.' Typically, more than half of participants in these courses take advantage of this feature. If you are at this stage of the process of learning MI, it may be time at the very least to listen to your own sessions through the lens of MI fidelity. You don't have to share them with us! Getting trainer feedback is an excellent way to grow! Would you take piano lessons and not play for your teacher? Just a thought!

Heck no! Any helping professional who has been studying and practicing MI is welcome to attend.
