      <image:caption>traveled from Phoenix in the summer of 2022 to begin the 9-12 Standalone training program and was back for the fall seminar. She achieved a better understanding and facility with the classroom materials due to the direct practice and coaching she got from the faculty. Especially important for her are the relationships she has formed with the other members of her cohort. Kayla praised the benefits of sharing concerns and solutions with colleagues she knows and know her. This kind of collegial relationship would not have been possible without face-to-face contact.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Each of the members of this group credited the faculty with welcoming expanded questioning and exploration. And they all emphasized the importance of the personal connection formed within the cohorts, one of mutual support and friendship that continues even after the training is over. These bonds are maintained and strengthened by sharing experiences and solutions made possible through a shared vocabulary and experiences.</image:caption>
