The eight-week period of prerequisite learning begins as soon as candidates are notified of their acceptance and extends through on-site arrival.
Participants must arrange travel to the on-site learning sessions and plan to arrive promptly at 8 a.m. for our welcome brunch on day one. Return travel should not be scheduled until after 4 p.m. on the final day of the program.
All participants are encouraged to bring a laptop computer, flash drive, and sufficient notebooks, binders and other supplies to facilitate the organization of learning. Attendance of all PPCI activities is required in order to complete the program with a high degree of professionalism. If this requirement conflicts with your own personal schedule, we ask that you refrain from making application. Exceptions will not be made.
