Are the CELBAN Help Centre Events free?

The CELBAN Help Centre Events are part of CELBANPrep's commitment to making CLB-informed learning and information more accessible to IENs and IEHPs.

They are offered according to the CELBANPrep Compassionate Pricing Policy: a humanitarian accessibility model designed to make meaningful learning more accessible without treating the time, knowledge, preparation, and energy involved in live learning as having no value.

What does that mean for the Events?

The first event is free.

After that, the contribution is $10 per session: approximately the cost of a cup of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate (in Canada).

You may also register for all seven sessions for $44.

The contribution is not intended to create a significant financial barrier. It is a small way of participating in the exchange: you invest a little, and we invest our time, preparation, knowledge, and energy in creating the learning space.

The first event you attend is free, so you can still learn more about our Events before deciding whether they are right for you.

Why isn't everything free?

Some CELBAN Help Centre resources are freely available. 

Others are offered through CELBANPrep's compassionate pricing model.

The distinction matters.

There are already free resources available:

1.  Through the CELBAN Help Centre there are self-evaluation activities, checklists, and more. 

2.  Through CELBANPrep Publishing, there are free e-books with Kindle Unlimited. 

3. Through CELBANPrep University there is a FREE Virtual Tour, which is actually the Bronze Bundle. It was previously behind the pay wall, with a value of $297. 

Just like coaching sessions, 

live learning is different.

A live event requires preparation, facilitation, technology, time, attention, and the presence of another human being.

A small contribution from you helps recognize that investment while keeping participation accessible.

Compassion goes both ways.

We want financial circumstances to be less of a barrier to meaningful learning. 

At the same time, we believe that the time and energy given by the people creating and facilitating that learning deserve to be valued.

That is why we created a humanitarian accessibility model designed to make meaningful learning more accessible without treating the time, knowledge, preparation, and energy involved in live learning as having no value.

Your contribution says you value the gift you are receiving. 

It allows the energy to flow in perpetuity.
