Suggested Daily Schedule

Our Suggested Daily Schedule will help to offer self guidance on the pace of the course.  If you completed each task, each day you will receive your certification in 40 days.  For those who need more time to complete the course, you can still follow the order of classes found in the Suggested Schedule.

Live Class Calendar

You can find the links to access our Live Zoom classes listed on our Google Calendar.  We suggest that you try to make it to all the Live Classes but they will be recorded with links to the recorded videos available below in the Curriculum Section.

Connecting with a Facilitator

5 Day Check-In’s

We will be having regular Live Check-In’s every 5 days.  During these Check-Ins you will be able to ask and hear other questions about any topic of discussion.  It will be important for you to keep track of your questions in your journal so that you may ask them at Check-Ins.  We will also use this time to focus on questions about the Art of Teaching, Alignment & Assists.

Spirit Guide

Each student will be assigned to a teacher on our facilitation team and that teacher will be your point of contact throughout the course. They will be checking in with you regularly with course updates, assignments, readings, support, guidance and inspiration.  This will be your person to turn to throughout the course if questions arise. You should be expecting to hear from your Spirit Guide in the coming days as they send an introductory email connecting your group.  We hope this brings a more personal feeling and deeper connection to your experience. 

Technical Support
