Teach on this program
Every lesson here is recorded by somebody who runs the system they are teaching. That is the whole standard, and it is what decides who gets a seat.
The bar is closer to an academic appointment than to a marketplace listing. The advisory board reads every application against it, and a seat waits until somebody clears that bar.
How to apply
About fifteen minutes in total, and you can spread it over as many sittings as you like: save a private draft at any point, then send it when it is ready. The advisory board reads every application that arrives.
Create your privileged access account
The same account that opens the courses. Your application lives behind your own login because the second half of it asks for your photograph and your phone number, and those belong somewhere only you can post to.
Fill in the form
Your portrait, your profile links, the course you would record, and the evidence behind it. Save a private draft at any point, then finish it another day.
Send it to the board
Add your phone, whether you can sit on a panel in person and in which city, and anything else worth knowing. Pressing send puts it in front of the advisory board, and the same page then shows you where it stands.
Every one of these is something a stranger can check for themselves, which is the standard the rest of this site holds itself to.
Stated before you apply rather than after you are accepted. A seat is a commitment across a whole term.
Advisory board
Every application to teach or to judge is read by the advisory board, and the decision belongs to the board alone. Its advisors sit outside this program, holding their own roles elsewhere in the field, and what they read is the evidence rather than the name on it.
Everything in one file
Your evidence, your links, your portrait and how to reach you, sent from inside your account rather than emailed around.
Measured against what the seat requires
Your application is measured against what the seat requires, so a strong intake keeps the bar where it is and a thin one keeps it there too.
A conversation, if it gets that far
Anyone the board is seriously considering talks to an advisor, and for a teaching seat that includes watching you explain one thing you built.
An answer either way
The page you applied from shows where your application stands, and it changes the day the board decides.
