FAQs

Do I need to be enrolled in Breech Pro to attend the training?
Yes. All registrants to our in-person trainings are required to have a current Breech Pro Plus or Breech Pro 2.0 enrollment. Those with a current Breech Pro 2.0 account must have an expiration date after the training date. Otherwise, you will be required to upgrade to Breech Pro Plus. If you have almost completed Breech Pro 2.0 and want to renew the same course, please email [email protected].. You can do so until Jan 1, 2026, at which point all renewals will be upgraded to Breech Pro Plus.

Do I have to complete Breech Pro Plus prior to the training?
Breech Pro Plus comes with 2 main courses: Essentials and Extras. You must have completed 100% of Essentials (9 hours) to be admitted on your hands-on training day. You will be asked to show your certificate of completion (downloadable upon finishing the course). If you have not completed Essentials, you will not be allowed to attend the hands-on training and you will not receive a refund on any portion of the training. Breech Pro Extras (6 hours) can be completed after the training.

How long will I have access to Breech Pro Plus?
Your Breech Pro Plus account will be created shortly after you register. Your one-year access will begin at this time. 

Is there a deadline to register? 
We accept late registrations. However, there will be an additional charge if registering after the cut-off date 4 weeks prior to the event. 

Do you offer continuing education credits?
The breech training includes a total of 23.5 contact hours with ACNM, with reciprocity with MEAC, DONA, & ICEA (15 CEs for Breech Pro Plus, 9 CEs for hands-on). Breech Pro Plus also includes EACCME CMEs (15.5 hrs).

What is your cancellation policy?
 If you are called away to a birth or family emergency on the day of the training and cannot reschedule your breech training day, you will receive 2 month's virtual access to the activity station materials (preferred) or $100 refund. For trainings that are cancelled due to an internal BWB decision, your refund will reflect all fees minus 75% of the value of Breech Pro. For trainings that are cancelled due to situations beyond BWB’s control, your refund will reflect all fees minus the value of Breech Pro. Otherwise workshop tickets are nonrefundable.

What if I accidentally selected the wrong option when I registered?
 We will correct the mistake and charge or refund your credit card on file.
