HOW THIS PROGRAM WORKS
ONLINE INSTRUCTION
All of our courses are taught online. All you need is Internet access to login and be part of each class.
LIVE VS. SELF-DIRECTED VS. COMBO?
This program is a combination of both live and self-directed.
Live: a date is selected among participants a few weeks before the start of classes. During this live interactive call you can ask questions as needed. Each class is recorded though so even if you miss it, you’ll still be able to listen to it at your convenience!
Self-Directed: all sessions are pre-recorded and you are given access to the new modules as you complete each one. You will email your instructor, or attend a weekly/monthly conference-call with the instructor, to ask any questions you may have as needed.
