Educator and Doula Workshops
The workshops remain valid towards certification for five years for Educators and three years for Doulas from the date they were held. We encourage those in the certification program to attend the workshop early in their training, but anytime during the training period is acceptable.
Students enrolled in Modified and/or Accelerated Programs are required to complete workshops in the allotted time frame. Accelerated Program Students must complete both workshops in order to be certified.
