FAQ
-
Is there a replay option if I can't attend live?
Yes! Every session is recorded and uploaded to your Thinkific dashboard within 24 hours.
-
I will have to miss a few of the sessions, is that ok?
Absolutely! Everything is recorded, so you'll have an opportunity to re-watch any of the sessions and read through the course materials.
-
I don't have any trans students yet. Is this still for me?
Absolutely, friend. Even if a trans student decides not to disclose their trans identity, the practices and skills in this course will help ensure that all students feel better supported and affirmed. You will also leave the course with a better understanding of the impacts of gender across the broader industries of voice, speech, and music education.
-
Is there an option to connect with the other folks in the class?
Yes! Discussion boards will be open once sessions begin. We encourage you to connect with your classmates and share resources and insights.
