This exclusive class is limited to only 6 students.
IMPORTANT NOTE: THIS CLASS IS FOR EXPERIENCED PROFESSIONALS ONLY. To ensure that your skills and the content are aligned an interview will be conducted by the lead instructors prior to registration to determine eligibility for the class. If you are approved for participation the instructors will provide you with the link for final registration and payment.

RUPES provides access to our corporate rate at the nearby Omni Interlocken Resort, and there are several hotel options nearby.
FOOD – RUPES will supply coffee and snacks in the morning, beverages throughout the class, and lunch each day. Dinners are on-your-own, but we encourage students to connect and coordinate dinners to strengthen their professional network and exchange ideas.
