Is the program fully virtual? – We are pleased to offer a hybrid model program with face-to-face and virtual sessions for Cohort 10. Our team is constantly evaluating public health policies and guidance from the CDC, the New England region, and our internal organizations. In the event we are no longer able to conduct face-to-face meetings due to safety concerns, at any point before or during the program, we will conduct all meetings in a virtual format and tuition costs will be reevaluated accordingly. This cohort’s in-person sessions will take place both in Concord, New Hampshire, and Worcester, Massachusetts respectively.

Tuition FAQs:
If we return to a fully virtual format will my program costs change? Yes, in the event we are no longer able to conduct face-to-face meetings due to safety concerns, at any point before or during the program, we will conduct all meetings in a virtual format and tuition costs will be reevaluated accordingly.
Why is there a range in cost for the program? Overall program costs are based on two main factors: tuition and lodging for face-to-face retreats. If you are within commuting distance of the retreats and do not need lodging for those sessions, your overall program cost is adjusted accordingly. View full tuition information on our Tuition page.
