Workshops are offered online, so you can take them anywhere! You choose between two formats:

Self-paced Workshops
You get all the resources and materials you need to learn the concepts fully. Because this option is geared toward independent learners with variable schedules, workshops are made available 24/7 for one month from the time access is given.

Facilitated Workshops
These workshops include everything offered in the self-paced workshops, but you also get facilitator interaction, feedback, and scheduled check-ups. These workshops are best for people who like feedback and want support throughout the class. Interaction is asynchronous through email, discussions, etc. Live (synchronous) communication is available by appointment. Workshops are available 24/7 and, because of the added support, are scheduled for two weeks.
