Enroll NowStep 03
Complete Your Modules
Work through the recorded video modules at your own pace. Each module builds on the last — covering theory, clinical technique, safety protocols, and practical application. Revisit any module as many times as you need.
Step 04
Attend Live Zoom Sessions
Join your scheduled live Zoom masterclasses with Eugenia and the G21 educator team. These sessions are your opportunity to ask questions, review techniques, discuss real client cases, and deepen your understanding beyond the recorded content.
Step 05
Complete Your Assessment
Each course includes a written assessment and, for hands-on modalities, a practical demonstration component. Assessments are designed to confirm your clinical readiness — not to trip you up. Our educators provide feedback and support throughout.
Step 06
Receive Your Certificate
Once all modules and assessments are successfully completed, your G21 certificate is issued. You also receive access to the graduate resource library, an invitation to the alumni community, and ongoing mentorship support.
