This discussion-filled live course will prepare you to conduct professional life story interviews. In this small mentoring group, I open our books to share the formula that took us years to fine-tune, so you can quickly create a thriving oral history business. Learn how you can have success in your own community and earn a livelihood doing this powerful work. This class sold out the last 3 times. Check back for the next start dates. Bundle includes 2 bonus online courses: "How to Conduct Oral History Interviews (start here)" "Emotional Skills for Professional Interviewers," and "Sensitive Subjects - writing about the hard stuff."
This is a live 5 -week class. The prepared instruction will run for 90 minutes with the recording on, and there will be another 30 minutes of discussion afterward.
No, this is meant to be a cohort-style live class. Each class will offer a prepared instruction plus group coaching.
There will be: 5-weeks of live instruction/group coaching; a closed FaceBook group so class members can network; the self-paced online course entitled "How to do oral history;" and the self-paced online course entitled "Sensitive subjects/writing about the hard stuff." This is a REALLY low price for this professional bundle that would take you tremendous time and experimentation to figure out the hard way.
We hope you can join us live, but the sessions will be recorded. If you miss a class or want a refresh, you can go back and watch the replay.
It is great if you have already done some interviewing or family history writing, but we assume you are just starting out in the business. We'll walk you through what it takes, even if you have never done interviews before. This course will help you decide if you want to start this rewarding line of work.
We have established a professional mentoring group which you may join following this class. As part of that membership, you will be able to acces our online courses and long-awaited writing class this spring. If you enroll now, you'll be able to access that at a low Founder's rate of $17 per month, which will never increase no matter how much the price goes up in the future.
We plan to open our methods and model, including pricing, marketing strategies, and plans for the future.
This 5-weeks will cover an introductory level to help you get started. There will be no official certification offered, but our current members have requested a certification, so we anticipate creating that in the future for our members.
