How the Courses Work
A link to your password-protected lesson arrives after you register. If there are multiple lessons in your course, they arrive via email once a week. Each lesson includes clear, in-depth instruction, and example images with explanation. Accompanying the lesson is an assignment based on what you have learned, so that you can practice on your own.
As a valuable extra, you have the ability to add personalized instructor critique of your own images to your package.
Why choose an e-Course?
Convenient! You can read the lessons, and complete the exercises on your own time, and from wherever you are located.
Flexible! Start the eCourse any week you want. No need to wait for the "next scheduled class."
Why Add Instructor Critique?
Personal! You get individual attention and critique of your own images by the instructor.
Valuable! You receive honest, constructive, helpful, and encouraging feedback.
