Tracking Classes …. now what did I take and why?
Ecumenicon School of Interfaith Studies is working within a continuing education certificate model. All classes are tracked by subject matter, teacher, and year taught to enable a student to get a well-rounded certificate which will eventually carry CEU points for transfer. See our School Page. Many classes being prepared will have pre-registration and reading assignments, so sign up early. We will also have on-line classes throughout the year so that we can offer more advanced courses beyond the basics we include in our conference.
Accessibility
Ecumenicon Interfaith Conference strives to be fully accessible. The conference is located entirely on one floor along a single corridor which is flat without stairs. ASL Sign Language interpreters are provided on an as-needed basis by qualified interpreters and team interns. See our “Accessibility and Inclusion” page for more details on how to request an interpreter.
In order to reach out to all our participants, we budget to cover accommodation needs, but the cost for a sign-language interpreter for a single two-hour class can be as much as $160, so we need your help. Please give generously to our accessibility fund.
