All of the I Matter Courses are designed to combine thought provoking online content delivered by Dr Cathy Betoin.   The purpose is to support reflection.  Courses can be taken as self-paced start-any-time learning or can be complemented by scheduled study support sessions that provide opportunities to ask questions with trained lead facilitators.   Every course provides a year's access to the I Matter Learning Community to enable study at one's own pace, and a certificate of attendance upon completion. For more information, consult the "Steps of the I Matter Journey" page.
