WSD Crash Course Workshops

The next portion we offer is our one-day “WSD crash course workshops,” which should replace the “corporate group training” section title. All content can stay the same here, but please replace the pictures with the video. I will need to update this section from time to time, including adding a link to register. I will then add a link to an outside portal in our Zen Planner app. No Free Trials for this. Only the Registration Link for an upcoming event.
