Location & Time

Webinar for the ELL Critical Data Process 4th Edition: This is a rare opportunity (given I am slowing down my schedule and most trainings are not open to guests). On December 12th the innovative company Flashlight Learning is facilitating a webinar and the price is just $25* per participant. This training is being done to benefit the Sammamish Animal Sanctuary near where I live (an amazing facility). Below is the link to signing up and a description of the Sammamish Animal Sanctuary (there website is linked within the sign-up link).

*The training is $25 per participant, but you are welcome to add a little to that. 100% of the money goes to the sanctuary, nothing is being taken by myself or Flashlight Learning.

Information about the Sammamish Animal Sanctuary:

Sammamish Animal Sanctuary is a nonprofit refuge dedicated to providing a safe, loving forever home for rescued farm animals. Our mission is to offer second chances to animals who have faced neglect, abandonment, or abuse, while also creating opportunities for education, compassion, and community involvement. From summer camps and volunteer programs to animal-assisted wellness visits, everything we do is rooted in kindness and care. Your support helps us continue this life-changing work—for animals and humans alike.  

Please Read: Most trainings are closed to within the sponsoring group. If you are looking to sponsor a training, the next possibilities are in the 2025-2026 school year. There are only three openings though and they will likely be booked prior to the end of the current school year.
