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 enrollment on the training date. If you are unsure of your expiration date, please log into your Thinkific account or email [email protected].

Do I have to complete Breech Pro Plus: Essentials & Extras 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. 

Can I attend the Twins Training? Do I need to attend both days?
The Twin Training is an advanced course intended for providers who already have hands-on breech experience. To attend, you must meet both of the following prerequisites: Active enrollment in Breech Pro Plus & previous attendance at an in-person BWB breech training within the last 12 months. If you meet these requirements, you are welcome to register for the Twin training only — you do not need to attend the Breech Training first. If you have not yet attended an in-person BWB training, you will need to register for both days.

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 package includes a total of ACNM 23.5 CEs and counts towards the NARM Bridge Certificate (Category 1). 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.
