A: Both programs are equal in quality. It is the structure and format of the curriculum that is designed differently, but each program will provide the same education as well as a full Comprehensive certification upon completion.

Comprehensive is a 600 hour program that takes 12-18 months to complete and includes apprenticeship hours and weekend intensives. The Comprehensive training intensives are generally divided into Apparatus I (Beginner) for one weekend, Apparatus II (Intermediate) for two weekends, and Apparatus III (Advanced) for one weekend, totalling four weekends.

Systems Training offers the same material as the Comprehensive program but is split into more weekend intensives and does not require the student to accumulate as many additional hours of practice outside of the training lectures. Similarly to the Comprehensive program, Systems Training is divided into three levels: Level I(Beginner/Beginner-Intermediate), Level II (Intermediate), and Level III (Advanced). It is designed for those who do not have the luxury of completing 600 apprentice hours, want to learn at a slower pace, take it one level at a time, or work full or part time. You must be self motivated to thrive in this program. The System Training program is not offered in all regions.
