PLEASE NOTE: This is an introductory foundational course on human sexuality. As with any course of study, there is no way to “complete” an education in human sexuality, and no single training is enough to cover all the intricate, fascinating, and evolving components. Recommendations for continued education will be provided on the final training day.
