This training program enables students to achieve basic to advanced levels of mastery. This intensive trimester program of 500 hours prepares the student through (a) self- exploration, (b) live group experience, and (c) virtual adult experiential learning modalities to reach a level of proven competency and understanding.

This training program is rigorous and is divided into four (4) distinct phases over a single trimester. Students engage in self-study at home before attending a ten-day live intensive training.
