Please check the FAQ section of the session you are attending to confirm whether a recording will be provided.

HOW LONG ARE THE LIVE WEBINARS?

Each webinar is scheduled for up to an hour. Please allow for generally 45-50 minutes of content as well as time for questions with your facilitator following the event.

There is content within the course that may take additional time. Any of our larger courses will have details about the expected time taken to complete in the FAQ section.  

WILL MY ACCESS TO AN ONLINE COURSE EXPIRE?

Of course, your access will not expire. All of the courses you purchase through the online learning community will remain available through your online learning portal.
