TBC for CBT Continuing Education Workshops and Trainings can be held virtually or in Person and now we also provide Hybrid trainings.
All In-Person Trainings will be held in Brandon, Florida at TBC for CBT at 219 Cook St. unless otherwise noted. For Virtual Trainings you will receive the Zoom link and workshop materials when you register. Trainings that are held on Fridays/Saturdays are scheduled that way to make it easier for attendees so they miss less work. We schedule the Friday sessions for longer hours in order to have a shorter day on Saturday so you can enjoy the rest of your weekend. Zoom interactive meeting times and dates will be detailed below. For more information, please contact nancy@tbcforcbt.com or call 813-480-8482.
