With the virtual weekly meetings and online class work, you may spend between 4 to 6 hours per week.
As in all things in life, however, the intention and attention you bring to your process is dependent on you, and will create your experience.
Pamela will be engaged with you throughout the course, through comments, and in our weekly live Zoom classroom. She can be reached through the chat message on the course page, and will be interacting within a private Facebook group set up for class participants once the course is completed.
You will continue meeting with Pamela twice after the six-weeks, during two one-hour virtual mentoring sessions,
On Wednesday evenings from 8 - 9 pm ET. If you are in another country, please speak with Pamela about arrangements for your attendance.
Dates are: May 8, 15, 22, 29, June 5 and 12.
These gatherings are for live interactions with your fellow students, as well as with Pamela. We all learn together as we share our questions and reflections.
You can receive a certificate of attendance for 4 Continuing Education Units, equivalent to 40 clock hours. A feedback form will be made available at the end of the course to confirm your successful completion of course requirements. Your certificate will be sent via email.
It is recommended to confirm with your local licensing agency prior to registering if you are relying on having the certificate approved for CEU hours.
If it is not possible for you to attend the live weekly Zoom meetings in ET, Pamela will schedule an additional day and time for you to meet.
You will also have access to view the recorded meetings in your learning community throughout the week.
Please speak with Pamela to make these arrangements.
Mentoring sessions will be on Wednesday, August 14 at 8 pm ET, and on Saturday, September 14 at 9 am ET.
This difference in days and times will help to accommodate students from different time zones.
