Let us know if you need anything else.
Is this a certification course?
Hi Susan,
Thanks for submitting your question! This course is a continuing education course. You can take it for CEU credits for your professional license. But, it is not a course to obtain yoga certification.
Have a great day!
Would this work for massage therapy CEU?
Would this count towards CEU for massage therapy in IL?
