When we meet
General cohort begins Tuesday, October 27, 2026. The program runs for ten teaching weeks and includes 20 live workshops, each about 90 minutes. You belong to one confirmed attendance group, not both automatically. Times below are anchored to America/Toronto Eastern local time, which observes daylight saving time.
Choose a consistent attendance group
Primary weekday option: Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7:00 p.m. Eastern.
Alternative weekend option: Saturdays and Sundays at 1:00 p.m. Eastern, subject to an actual weekend group being confirmed. A weekend class is not automatically repeated when there is no assigned weekend group.
If your regular group time fails, request a transfer or make-up seat in the other group before attending. We will confirm availability and avoid duplicate live instruction. Recordings and self-paced work support missed lessons.
Upcoming sessions in your local time
Detecting your time zone…
Important: Weekend windows run only if a weekend group is confirmed. Your confirmed calendar invitation is authoritative.

West Africa Time in Nigeria is UTC+1 year-round. Canadian and U.S. Eastern/Central zones change clocks November 1. A calendar invitation in your own time zone is the authoritative reminder for each confirmed session.
Early preparation is separate
Some accepted learners may begin their individual Foundations and onboarding earlier, including during the October 24–25 weekend. These are individual arrangements, not a change to the general cohort's October 27 start, and do not mean the whole group has completed a class.
Capacity: there is no fixed public seat cap or countdown. Enrollment is reviewed, and teaching group assignments depend on available instruction and confirmed attendance. No certificate is promised; your practical capstone and skills are the core outcomes.
