The OCA has developed a hybrid format for this course with both online and in-person components:
- Virtual Lectures and Group Discussions: Lectures will be presented online, with 4.5 hours of video recordings delivered each week beginning Sept 12th. At the end of each week, participants will join in a mandatory 1 hour-long discussion group via Zoom on Sept 18, Sept 25, Oct 2 and Oct 9, 2022 (multiple time slots will be available).
- Regional In-Person Labs: The hand-over-hand training for which the OCA is well known will be held in small groups regionally.
