About this trip

Boot Camp brings together the best of all the different classes we teach. We put you through the ringer during our time together! In a small class setting, we’ll focus on workshopping the practical skills you need to succeed. 



Health & Safety

As we operate our in-person programs during the global pandemic, we are focused on taking the right steps to protect the health and safety of our students and staff.


We are no longer asking for documentation of vaccination against Covid-19, however, proper protection is highly recommended.

Accommodations

We will be conducting the in person classroom at Homewood Suites Uptown.  Hotel is NOT INCLUDED in the cost of the training. You don't have to stay there, but if you choose to stay there, we have contracted special rates (TBA). The hotel is an all-suite hotel, that features a kitchenette and there is a grocery store nearby. If you would like to have a roomate to offset the cost, we recommend booking a room with two beds and then email us your request. We will try to pair you with other students as they sign up and request a room share.
