Blended learning allows the candidate of a course to complete the first half of the course online at their own pace. The term used for this is "asynchronous-learning." This means that you can take as many breaks or take as long as you need to in order to complete your online portion of the course without losing your progress online. 

The online component must be completed before you attend an in-person session. 

Upon completion, you will be eligible to participate in one of our in-person courses which will provide you with the full certification at the end of the day as long as you meet all requirements to pass.
