BENEFITS OF OUR HYBRID LIVE AND ONLINE-VIDEO FORMAT
With the challenge of isolation in working from home remotely, and in order to keep everyone as healthy and free from any exposure to the Covid-19 Virus in Southern California, we are moving the training to a combined live and online-video platform with self-study format.
