Welcome to your online learning journey!
Here, you will find all of the course materials you need to complete the course. In some lessons, there may be a mini quiz and some may have workbooks or reference sheets for you to download in the resources section, which you will find at the bottom of each lesson.
There will be reflective assignments for you to complete that will help you to integrate and apply what you have learned. You do not have to submit your answers, but we strongly recommend that you take your time with each question, as they will deepen your understanding and help you to apply what you have learned in a practical, meaningful way.
We would also love for you to share your AHA moments with us in our Facebook group here so that we can celebrate with you!
If you have any questions about your course, please either reach out to us in the group or you can email us at [email protected].
When you have completed your course and all of the reflective assignments, please email us at [email protected], stating the course completed and how you wish your name to appear, and we will send you your certificate.
Happy learning!
