What if I only want to take one of the foundational courses?
First of all, YAY! I am glad you want to take a course to help you become more inclusive! That being said, it’s important that we go through all of the different pillars because they are all different intersections that come with their own unique set of challenges, blind spots, and biases that we need to address if we truly want to impact as many humans as possible. We didn’t want people to feel that they had to choose between one or another, so we’ve gone ahead and included all 7 in the initial tuition to a) save you money and b) give you the best range of knowledge!
Can I take the courses in any order that I want?
While the courses are self paced, they are to be done in a specific order. When working through biases, beliefs, and oppression it can be heavy work, so I have them laid out in a way that will give you some space to breathe, reflect, and then continue working. Also, because you do them in order, you get a new badge with every course - think of it like the martial arts belt system!
Are the electives included in the 7 pillars program course?
Alas, no. The 7 Pillars Program is the foundational program to get you set and the electives are smaller courses designed to fall into each of these pillars. While you don’t HAVE to take the 7 Pillars Program in order to take the electives, if you do you will get a 50% discount off of the electives courses!
Why is it so expensive?
While premium education is always a good business investment, it was important to me to be able to pay the educators fairly and ethically - not just for their time and expertise, but also for their emotional labour as they share their experiences with you. That being said, we have made it more accessible through our payment plan option as well, you can consider applying for our scholarship sponsored by The Boudoir Album (details coming in February 2021).
Will I have access forever?
Yes! Once you purchase the course (through whichever option you select) you will have lifetime access to course! Should we end up moving platforms or change things up, we will give you 30 days notice AND make everything downloadable for you!
IS IT SELF PACED OR LIVE?
All of our courses are self paced because we know you live ridiculous lives! That being said, we still understand that one needs to be able to ask questions and share ideas and what not, so we have created a private Facebook group for this specific reason! Once you join the 7 Pillar Program, you will have access to the link to join the group and we encourage ALL matter of questions no matter how uncomfortable they might seem!
