About the AcademyÂ
We’re excited to introduce the GHW Academy Essentials – a brand-new 3-course training series designed to provide you with the core knowledge and tools you need to understand the dynamics of abuse.
Curated from our highly praised Give Her Wings Academy, the Essentials course delivers the most essential information in a condensed format. In just 3 months, you’ll gain valuable insights and skills without the full 12-month commitment of our original format.
With a reduced time and financial investment, the GHW Academy Essentials is more accessible than ever – empowering you to make a real difference in the lives of those affected by abuse.
