Yes and No. Yes, students are responsible for engaging with all of the content offered during both 6-day intensives, but travel to Vermont is not required.

Our yearly orientation intensive in February takes place online, while a summer intensive is offered in-person each year in Vermont. We highly encourage students to attend the summer intensive in-person, but we understand that travel is an obstacle for a variety of financial, health, family and other reasons. Therefore, in-person attendance is not required at the Family program summer intensive.

Students who don’t attend the summer intensive in-person receive the material being covered via recordings of prior live classes and are supported to move through the material at their own pace over the course of the intensive week. Despite being at home, students will still need to make time to engage with the material in order to be ready to proceed with the curriculum when online classes resume the following week.
