You work directly with Kathleen Swanson (Level 3 CIYT) — teaching in live classes each week, studying the required knowledge you will be assessed on, and receiving written feedback on everything you submit.

Month One begins October 11, 2026. Enrollment is rolling — new mentees join on the second Sunday of any month and work through the full curriculum at their own pace. A digital curriculum manual is included upon enrollment.
