REGISTRATION: There are TWO steps to registering for this class.

1. Click the button "Register for this Class" below. Follow the prompts to register for a QWEL account first (create your account username and create a password). Once you have a QWEL account, you can register for this specific class.

2. Payment should be made after you register on a QWEL user account and then for this specific training. Please pay for your registration on EventBrite by clicking HERE. With a limited number of seats, payment must be received no later than 5pm on September 10th, or your seat may not be guaranteed.

Lunch will be provided all three days. Please be sure to bring your own refillable water bottle, notepaper and pens, and a calculator (smartphones are allowed, provided you use only the calculator feature during the exam).
