What course durations and topics are accepted at FDC?

FDC schedules 2 1/2 - three-hour lecture courses and hands-on workshops per half-day. We ask that full-day lectures (6-7 hours) be independent of each other as a part one and part two course to allow participants to attend either one or both sessions. Full-day workshops are accepted but very few are placed onto the program. We also offer one-hour ‘Power Hour’ lectures on Thursday for those interested in volunteering their time. Topics include, but are not limited to:
