3Work with people

The part self-study can't do alone — a mentor, a cohort, and live help.
__IC_MENTOR__

Your mentor

Book a 1:1 check-in to review your progress and get hands-on guidance.

__IC_CHAT__

Your cohort

Ask questions and share wins in the Skool community — and drop a comment under each lesson to discuss that module.

__IC_LIVE__

Live office hours

Drop-in group Q&A on the Skool Calendar — RSVP and join live.

4Prove it — practical sign-off

The hands-on skills a mentor verifies in person. This is what makes it real, not just watched.
Checkboxes and details save on this device. A mentor confirms each item in person, then you email or print the record.
