"ParaNexus World
Alliance Partner" is a designation given to qualifying independent
Paranormal Research groups who take a serious and professional approach
to helping clients resolve paranormal activity as well as conducting
research. ParaNexus, as a professional organization, will only consider
groups who have demonstrated competence in conducting paranormal
investigations and who desire to make meaningful contributions to the
paranormal field.
The primary
purpose of the ParaNexus World Alliance Partners is to assist clients
who are experiencing severe, disturbing, or frightening paranormal
activity. Partners must assist clients in an unbiased, logical,
scientific, and professional manner. ParaNexus World Alliance Partners
are dedicated to resolving paranormal issues by interviewing those
affected and investigating the events being reported in an attempt to
discover the truth behind the events. Partners also attempt to provide
comfort, understanding, coaching, and resolution to those being
affected.
All certified
Partners must successfully complete an approved Paranormal Investigator Certification
Course and then be screened by ParaNexus administration. ParaNexus
World Alliance Partners are given priority to client referrals. No fee
is required.
Applicants must
submit a copy of their Standards and Protocols, a typical case report,
and two examples of evidence analysis such as photos, video, and/or EVP.
Applicants may alternately supply a web link that contains all such
information.
ParaNexus World Alliance Partners support the following
investigation approach in order of priority:
-
HELP THE CLIENT:
We desire to discover how the alleged paranormal
events are impacting the witnesses, and to discover how the effects
can be resolved. In other words, we want to discover the
relationship between the events and the people who experience them.
This information will help us help them as well as draw out the
underlying truth of the event.
-
Help the entity or spirit (if possible/applicable):
We desire to also assist spirits or entities helping
them in crossing-over, assisting in resolving any unfinished
business that keeps them earthbound, or assisting them in overcoming
their fear of moving on.
-
FIND ANSWERS:
To discover, document, and prove/disprove/explain the paranormal
event as progressive paranormal investigators and researchers,
parapsychologists, or psychically gifted individuals, thus gaining
insight into human condition and the greater mysteries of our
Universe.
World Alliance

-
The group’s leadership must be of sound and balanced mind, possess
good moral character, and demonstrate common sense and rational thinking
regarding paranormal research.

members, and have conducted at least 5 investigations.
-
Eligible groups must demonstrate an above average ability to
accurately and rationally analyze photo, video, and audio evidence.
-
The group’s core investigative members
must be CPI certified—this means all members who actively participate in
investigations. New core members must become CPI certified within 60
days of joining the group. Only approved courses qualify as “CPI
certified.”
-
The group must maintain a
professional primary website with a proper domain name (MySpace and Meet
Up groups do not count as a primary website). Proper domain names
include "www.YOURGROUPSITE.com/net/org" etc., or "subdomain.YOURGROUPSITE.com"
etc.
-
The group Founder(s) must be a member(s)
of ParaNexus and CPI/CFPI certified within 60 days of being accepted as
a World Alliance Partner. (Please Note: The CFPI Course has not yet been
released. You may apply provided you agree to complete the CFPI course

2008.)
-
The group must have an established
set of Standards and Protocols (or Standard Operating Procedures (SOP))
that reflects professionalism, organization, progressive scientific
thinking, and an unusually deep comprehension of paranormal phenomena
and investigations. Furthermore, eligible Groups must show evidence of
upward, open, and forward thinking that is not given to superstitious
beliefs, e.g., “demonology” or any other religiously based
predispositions.
-
Eligible groups must actively seek to resolve alleged paranormal
activity reported by clients to be considered for membership as
World Alliance Partners. In other words, we will not consider groups
whose sole purpose is simply to watch/observe ghosts, and/or gather data.
We desire groups whose investigation priorities are: 1) Help the client;
2) Help the spirit (if applicable); 3) Find answers and gather data.
-
Groups who show evidence of religious bias/superstition or, conversely,
unreasonable scientific bias will not be considered for membership as World Alliance
Partners. We are looking for balanced and open-minded groups who investigate the
paranormal without preconceived notions, and who seek to rule out natural
explanations before exploring paranormal explanations.
-
Certified Partners must
post and upload all evidence and a final case report for all ParaNexus referrals in the
appropriate forum within 30 days of the referred investigation.
-
Partners must
display the official Certified World Alliance Partner banner prominently
on the front page of their websites with a link back to ParaNexus.org.

Eligible groups must endorse and adhere to the ParaNexus
International Standards for Paranormal Research and Investigation (ISPRI)
