Because CLC Ottawa is a non-profit registered charity, we are able to keep your tuition much lower than a comparable commercial course.

And we have a special deal for you. Bring one or more friends or colleagues to the course, and have them name you at the bottom of their registration as the person who invited them to the course. At the end of week 4, we will give each of you a refund of 25% of your tuition (before any PayPal fees).
