how it works

 

Participants learn the material by watching videos and reading materials, then demonstrate their learning by answering quiz questions.

Upon successful completion, participants can download a certificate that shows the number of professional development hours earned. We highly recommend that dance professionals keep track of all professional development and certifications, including expiration dates, when applicable.
