This will include, but is not limited to the podcasts you will need to listen to, discussion boards (at least 300 words each) that you will need to complete for each section of the training, the registration links to be able to join the live sessions, the test, and any other resources that are discussed in the podcasts and the live session. All materials will be available as soon as you are registered. 

*Please note that you must complete all aspects of the online portion before you attend the live session. Our presenters are empowered to reschedule if the work is not completed.  

You can only finish the BIP certification training once you complete ALL components of each module. To get credit for attending the training, a participant MUST stay for the ENTIRE duration of all the live sessions. If you cannot complete all five live sessions and be fully present and participatory, you must wait until the next/subsequent session to complete your training.

As part of our BIP Certification Training, we require that all attendees sign an Agreement of Understanding during the registration process. This agreement outlines the terms and conditions that ensure a smooth and productive experience for everyone involved. Please review the attached document before you enroll in the training, and Simone Marx will send the agreement via e-sign after enrollment. The link to the form can be accessed at the link below. If you have any questions about the agreement or need further clarification, please feel free to reach out.
