How the Book Study Works:
1. Purchase a digital or hard copy of this book.
2. At least two weeks prior to the first meeting, an email will be sent to registrants including a syllabus with chapter assignments for each meeting.
3. Read the book as outlined in the syllabus prior to meetings and be ready to share your thoughts and ideas in a flexible discussion format.
4. If you cannot be present for a ZOOM meeting, you will be required to provide a written summary of the session’s content in order to receive your hours. This is intended to be a synchronous book study with opportunities for discussion amongst colleagues; as such, participants are expected to attend a minimum of three live sessions to obtain course hours. If you cannot commit to synchronous attendance on these dates please choose another book study option.
5. A certificate with your 15 credit hours will be issued upon completion of the book study.
