How are courses structured?
Each course contains 4–10 modules with clear outcomes, drills, and reflections. Your dashboard unlocks the next module once you meet milestone criteria.

Full refund within 14 days if fewer than 20% of modules are completed. Live lab fees are refundable up to 48 hours before the first session.
