Feedback from recent students

“I just want to thank you again for providing this amazing content! Every teacher was outstanding. I feel so lucky I was able to do this from the West Coast, thanks to the video platform.”

 
“This program was very informative and I believe it is definitely most effective when taking all 3 parts.  Each section built up on the section before it and it all came together with the last section delivered by Judson and Lauren.  The third section really pulled it all together for me and was definitely when I had my “ah ha moment”.  Until then I was still quite concerned that I was struggling to narrow down what area I would like to pursue and if I was going to be able to find an area that would be a good fit without having a college degree.”
