Nope! In fact, at this time we are only offering this course to those who have completed the original course.

We are contemplating offering a challenge option to Hands-On Suturing I down the road. The challenge option would require demonstration of knowledge and skills taught in Hands-On Suturing I, as this course builds upon that information.

Hybrid, yes. But not exactly the same. This sequel includes over 10 hours of on-demand content, and a small group live Zoom session of 4 to 6 participants.

At least 13.5 hours of CE for midwives and APRNs.

Oh so many! The Course Curriculum below shows everything covered in the on-demand portion. (Click "show details" to expand each each section!) Topics include labial tears, tricky hymen situations, complicated vaginal and perineal repairs, five (5!) different techniques to manage bleeding vessels, new knots, new fancy stitches, two options for what to do if you run out of suture mid-repair...we tried to cover everything that folks have asked about.

We have set the initial price at $485 per person, which includes practice supplies* and a seat in the small group session. *Practice models and suture included; instruments and clamp stand not included.

We are currently offering a half-this-month, half-next-month payment plan option. The total cost when paying this way is exactly the same.

At the moment, there is currently a "discount for everyone," as this is the only the introductory pricing. We will likely raise the price after this spring, at which time there will be discounts as part of the new pricing. In addition to the upfront costs, the ongoing costs for materials for this course are quite high. (Both the models needed, and the suture provided - over an entire box per student!) A "fair" price, based on our labor and supply costs, and by how similar offerings are priced, is well above what we are currently charging. As always, we charge the lowest price we can that allows us to continue to do this work.
