How it works:
Our workshops are comprehensive and interactive! We integrate creative exercises that follow along with the modules so you have a chance to practice all the skills presented.
The course requires 8-10 hours to move through the content and complete the associated practice activities.
You will have access to Office Hours. Two Zoom coaching calls with an experienced instructor for a chance to ask questions and review skills in real-time.
On registration, you will receive a login for immediate access and a procedure kit will be mailed to you. This course is on-demand, which means you can start straight away. We’re here to support you as you work at your own speed!
