Each class is dedicated to a different topic and taught by a different instructor, in order to provide exposure to a range of concepts and teaching methods. Attendance at all 8 isn’t mandatory, but the classes do build on one another. We encourage you to attend as many classes as possible to get the full value from the experience.
