*A learning pathway is a series of classes with an in-depth exploration of a skill area. When a pathway is completed, a certificate of learning is awarded to acknowledge your commitment to pursue the study and practice of a specialized area of professional development. Participation is paced to provide time to reflect upon your learning and integrate concepts and skills into your life and work.
