Earning your continued trust and support is very important to us,
so we thank you for giving us the opportunity.

We are acutely aware of the financial challenges for all in 2009. At the same time, we believe that the world needs this program now more than ever. Therefore, we are striving to help by being more efficient and cost-conscious than ever.  First, we are keeping our tuition at or below 2007 levels. Second, we will work diligently to partner with host sites because we can bring the training to the host site and save everyone the money they would otherwise have to spend on travel and lodging. Finally, we will work to reduce overall costs by scheduling smaller, more efficient workshops, without sacrificing quality.
