* Fast Track offerings are those that are done over a compact period of time, OR  a lot of work performed per session – rather than the regular schedule (typically 1 class a week, over 5 weeks).  As many folks ask for a course both ways, we often offer both types.  See the Complete Course Catalog for all options.
