Course Outline
This is a live, online class led by a field expert; and just like an in-person class, it is fully interactive and engaging.
While not a requirement, some students find it helpful to attend this class using two computer monitors. This will allow for one screen to always display the instructor's screen, and the other for you to use as you follow along with the instructor.
