COVID-19 UPDATE
At this time all spring training events have been CANCELLED until further notice.
We are in the process of converting many of our programs to a webinar style class and will open registration in early June 2020. Please note that any training programs we run in the fall, will be done so in a virtual online environment and access to a computer with sound and video is required. When our training programs return to a physical classroom over time, we will alert all participants of any changes to their registrations.
