just remember if it is a service that charges money, you need to pass on the details via pm.

I believe I can post this because some of the courses I took online were free from them. This place is absolutely phenomenal. I learned a ton from them even though I had already adopted before. It is Adoption Learning Partners. Their course called Eyes Wide Open was so meaningful to me. I also took Conspicuous Families and Lifebooks (can't remember which ones had fees and which were free).

The Adoption Learning Partners classes are no longer free. There is a fee for the enrollment.

adoption learning partners

Some of the classes, like the lifebook one are still free.

They have an area on the site that lists the Hague guidelines and which courses meet which requirements.
