We offer a sliding scale to make our programming accessible to all income levels. We are unable to offer scholarships at this time, but we hope to do so later this year. Registration covers transaction fees, wages for instructors and the DEI Outdoors team, and software and administration fees. 

This course is valued at $650. Please choose this amount if you are using professional development funds or you are not paying out of your personal pocket (i.e., you are an organization paying for staff to attend).

We start our sliding scale at $325. You can choose any amount above $325. Below are our general guidelines:

$325-$450 - This level is for you if you are a student, unemployed, under-employed, single parent, or part of a historically marginalized community.

$450-$650 - This level sustains our staff and helps pay instructors at a level that supports their work. This level is recommended for folks with a stable income.

$650-$1,000 - This is the value of our course. 

$1000+ - This level helps offset the cost of other students.

We offer many payment options, including Afterpay, Paypal, Credit/Debit, ACH, & Pay by Check. Select "Invoice" at checkout if you want to pay by check.
