In response to the current COVID-19 pandemic, we are transforming our traditional in-person classes and certificates to live online classes beginning this fall.
In some cases, these interactive online programs will be offered at the same time as the previously scheduled in-person class. Other online classes have been shortened or scheduled over multiple days to enhance your online learning experience.
Attend any class — from our two-hour programs on ethics and boundaries to our multi-day certificates and training programs — from the convenience, comfort and safety of your home or office.
Download our calendar of the online classes we offering through February, 2021. We look forward to seeing you online this fall!
