About Participants

Apart for attending a 1.5 - 2 hour weekend session we recommend a total of ~4 hours of study each week. This study can be asynchronous and during the week or weekends.

We encourage participants to join the program from the very beginning as the technical sessions are built on knowledge acquired in previous sessions. However if you still wish to participate in the middle you can do so and refer to the previous recorded sessions. In order to be included in the newsletter and LinkedIn group please drop us an email on besaprogram2022@gmail.com

All the live sessions are recorded and will be avaialble on the BeSA YouTube channel for later viewing.
