**Note: If you want to take our “in person” (on Zoom right now LA time zone PST) classes and not just online course only (no Zoom portion — best for those with big time difference), you need to go to thebookshopads.com to sign up there. If that is the case, DO NOT SIGN UP HERE. If you intended to do the online course only, then proceed to read info below to sign up here on this site.
Please select the workshop below that you want to take. You will receive an email with your login information after you have filled in the form & paid.
Each course is available for 77 days (two and a half months, which mirrors our “in-person” classes) and then expires so you must complete the entire 9 weeks within that time frame or you will miss out on any remaining classes in your course. This is an automated feature so please do not ask us for more time. Once completed, sign up again here for the next level and so on.
Important: ONLY THE PERSON WHO IS TAKING THE COURSE CAN SIGN UP. DO NOT SIGN UP FOR SOMEONE ELSE. You can have them use your credit card, but they must be the person to sign up and create an account to be able to take the course. But If someone else is paying for your classes or if you are using someone’s credit card, please advise them that the payment will show up on their statement as “THEBOOKSHOPADS” so that they know what it is. This is very important so that no transactions are accidentally cancelled which will result in a lengthy process, a paypal cancellation fee that we will need to charge you, as well as your online course being cancelled. Thank you! Again, ONLY SIGN UP IF YOU ARE PERSONALLY TAKING THE COURSE. DO NOT SIGN UP FOR SOMEONE ELSE or they will not be able to access the course in your place.
Please note: Since The Book Shop is a “school/service” and not a product, we cannot give refunds for courses paid and signed up for. Courses paid for on this site are to be taken on this site only and the fees cannot be transferred to our in-person courses (nor can courses signed up for and paid for on that site be transferred to our online courses here). Thank you.
