Education opportunities

IMPORTANT NOTICE:   Early registration is critical to the successful holding of all of the numbered IRWA courses, due to the the World Headquarter's (WHQ) policies requiring 4 weeks materials order time prior to course dates.  Most of our courses will require a minimum of timely registrations to hold a class because of the WHQ ordering policies, avoiding late-shipping penalties.  Once the minimum has been met for each course's "register by"  date, we will continue to accept registrations - until filled.
