This course will be provided as a live-broadcast for online attendance only. The ability to access Zoom through a computer, tablet or smartphone with a reliable internet connection is necessary to attend. Limited in-person attendance may become available as restrictions lift in response to COVID-19. If you are unable to attend virtually, we will place you on a waiting list to attend in-person should the opportunity become available.
