The Course Areas
We want to make the CENAPS Model easy for you to learn, so we've broken the model down into six course areas which are listed below. Each course area has a conference keynote presentation, a three-hour conference workshop, a one-day seminar, and a three-day advanced skills training with optional competency certification.
