FLEXIBLE course SCHEDULE

* All 31 certificates are available

* Program schedule & dates are up to the cohort (certificate group

        sponsor)

* Each of the 4 face-to-face certificate courses conducted outside North

        America typically follows a 6 week model:

-       Weeks 1-2: course preparation

-       Weeks 3-4: 30-35 hours (usualy held in 4 days) of face-to face classes

o consecutive weekends (all day Saturday & all day Sunday) or

o any schedule desired over the 2 week period where we meet 30-35 hours

-       Weeks 5-6: attendees do a project that applies the course content which is sent to our

            faculty for critique

-       The next course cycle begins on the 7th week

               With several cohorts going on concurrently in the same geography, we can arrange a different

                schedule to spread each course over a longer period

        * The North American face-to-face segments can be scheduled more flexibly;

                 typically given on two 2-day face-to-face segments with a 3 week seperation between the

                 segments
