There is no time limit. Please engage with the course at your own pace.

When you finish the course, we hope you will use the materials as a reference to enhance your future practice.
How can I interact with others while taking a self-paced course?
Our course content invites self-reflection. Course exercises, interviews, and practices can be enhanced when reflected on with others. As of June 2024, we've added "Padlets" to all of our courses for registrants to share your own reflections, questions, recordings, and images. We look forward to your participation and interaction to create a space for co-learning and shared ideas.
