Please Note - Part I of this class is a requirement in order to take Part II. If you previously took the Basic class through either Building Warriors or Auxilium, then you can move on to Part II.

In two days, we will address communication skills, ethics, building and maintaining a team, confidentiality, and learning how to sit with people without trying to solve their problems. From here, you will build on these skills in Part II of the class.
