Below is a list of the many programs we offer throughout the year. Currently all courses offered through the end of 2020 will be taught in real time, online to meet social distancing requirements.  The Center believes that people learn best when they play an active role in their experience. To ensure active engagement, all virtual classes will be facilitated by an instructor in real-time – meaning you will be able to talk with them, ask questions, and collaborate as you would in the classroom. Using Zoom and other platforms, we are creating a learning space where participants can talk to each other through breakout rooms and interact with the material through our Learning Management System (LMS).

Join our mailing list to stay up to date on the next time a course will be offered. We are also happy to offer our open enrollment courses as custom programs for your organization!
