IMPORTANT SCHEDULING NOTES: 
  • All 32 Classroom Sessions are offered multiple times during the winter/spring. Thus, if you can't make the fall schedule work, or if you miss the occassional class, you will still have ample opportunity to make them up later.
  • Because the Classroom Sessions continuously cycle and are not sequential, each student may not need to be attending classes during the entire time period indicated--only until he or she has been to each of the 32 unique sessions at least once.
  • The one-on-one approach to covering the materials allows great flexibility in start dates for specific students. The "long track" and "short track" described here are simply the study schedules employed by most students.
  • If none of the classroom times listed fit your schedule, please give us a call. We are frequently adding sections or adjusting start times to accomodate student needs.
  • Summer Courses: We offer limited seats for a summer course in Salt Lake City, UT and in Portland, OR. Call for more details.
