Our teachers have an array of talents. You can check them out by hovering over the Workshops tab above and clicking on the drop down link or you can simply click here.

We have added the Yahoo Babel Fish translator boxes to our Ning network and hope you find this to be useful. I added both boxes because I find some browsers won't work with one but will work with the other.

The boxes will follow you to each page but for some reason they often appear at the very bottom of each page. These translator boxes also appear in the workshops.

The workshops that we offer are all conducted here in the Creative Workshops Ning group.

You can join our Ning group now or if you purchase a workshop you can wait and join when you receive your workshop invitation.

In order to participate in online workshops, the workshop must be purchased. If a workshop has not started at the time of purchase you will receive an invitation to join the workshop shortly before the class begins. In the case of ongoing workshops you will receive your invitation to the workshop shortly after your fee is paid.

Payment for the workshops is through Paypal. If you do not have a Paypal account, when you get to the Paypal page there is an option to pay using your credit card on the bottom left of the page. This will allow you to make a one-time payment without registering for Paypal. When a workshop has been purchased, you will receive an email from Paypal confirming your order. Due to the nature of these classes refunds are not available once you have purchased a class.

The only email address we have to send workshop invitations is your Paypal email address we receive when payment is made. If you want the invitation sent to another email address you must contact us before invitations are issued.
If you have joined the Ning group under one address and join again under the Paypal address that the invitation uses and it is different, you will end up with two "My Pages" and it can cause you some confusion when signing in for your workshop.

For any workshop you are expected to have basic computer and Internet skills. You will need to be able to access the workshops with your ning ID that was used in your workshop invitation. Some workshops use video and if you do not have a high speed connection we can not guarantee you will be able to see the videos. You will need to be able to download files, copy, paste or save documents to your hard drive. It is your responsibility to know these skills before a workshop begins – these skills WILL NOT be taught during any workshop.

Participants may copy and paste text lessons onto their own computer or print them out. All lessons are yours to keep and you may do anything with them except share them with someone else. The documents, photos and/or videos that will be used in these sessions take the place of an in-class instructor working with you.

There will be a private Q&A area in the workshop area. This is where you will go to discuss what you are learning, meet other participants or ask questions of the teacher. . Participation in this area is not mandatory, it is there for your use should you wish.

Please note that many of the course materials you will be given are copyrighted and course material is NOT for public distribution under any circumstances.

Videos used in a workshop are for class use only and only available as long as a class remains open. Due to coypright issues videos are not available for download at thistime.
