Each date is scheduled, but an individual workshop requires at least 10 registered participants to run. We provide a final status update no later than 7 days before the scheduled date. If the minimum is not reached, registrants may choose a full refund or transfer to any future workshop date. Register together with a friend, family member, colleague or co-worker to receive $100 off your registration and theirs. If you have a larger group, contact us directly so we can help organize a private workshop or provide a bulk-discounted special rate.
This workshop covers practical techniques that can be implemented immediately in your own reading material.
