Short, self-paced, taught by the same faculty.
A Gaja course is a foundations course: a few hours of interactive lessons on one subject, a certificate of completion at the end, and the clearest way to find out whether a certification is for you. Many students take one for themselves and stop there. That's fine too.
About four hours of interactive lessons you can start the moment you enroll and finish at your own pace, on any device.
The directors and mentors who lead the certifications wrote and recorded these. Same voice, same standards, smaller commitment.
Finish every lesson and a certificate of completion is issued to you, with a verification link like any Gaja credential.
A course is a whole subject in a few hours. Take one for yourself and stop there, or take it as the on-ramp to a certification or alongside one.
