Available 2010 sessions:June 14 - July 22: **FULL**Sept. 29 - Oct. 27: For our BFW Mentors & Doulas only
This fantastic and very popular online distance course is designed by Pam England for people who work with pregnant women and their partners. You will be guided in the nuts-and-bolts of making and teaching from birth art in both private sessions and group classes. Lessons are lively, fun, and very informative.
Our interactive course is offered in two formats: one session for our BFW Mentors and Doulas (four weeks), and one for everyone else (five weeks)! Each session includes lessons, weekly assignments, interactive forums and live online chats with your peers and Pam England and/or Virginia Bobro. Each session includes two group conference calls. You will come away with a myriad of skills and processes to enhance your work and personal awareness!
Past sessions have sold out two months in advance, so register early! Enrollment is limited to ensure personal attention. When you register, please indicate WHICH session you want.
Before you register, be sure you can participate fully for the entire length of the session. Assignments include holding birth art sessions during the session, so if you are on a solo boat voyage around the world, that won't really work! Online chats are held once a week, usually on Wednesday at noon (Pacific time). All chats and calls are optional and archived, so they can be accessed later. Once the course has begun, the fee is non-refundable.
16 contact hours available through CA Board of Registered Nursing, provider #12800.
