Common questions

## Two things people ask before they buy.

1.  01
    
    ### Can I enroll my whole team or organization?
    
    Yes. Many of our learners come through their employer: county behavioral health agencies, fire departments, schools, faith communities, community health workers, and non-profits. We offer bulk pricing for groups. Email Angelica at Angelica@emorrisonconsulting.com with your rough headcount and she will get back to you within a business day.
    
2.  02
    
    ### What is the difference between the Self-Paced and Live courses?
    
    Self-Paced is the seventy-hour core course, fully asynchronous, with flexible start dates. Live is fourteen live sessions across fourteen weeks with a cohort of peers, plus five personal counseling sessions included. Both lead to the same fundamental skill, Self-Paced is for learners who want to move at their own pace; Live is for those who want practice and feedback with people.
