Not one, but 5 courses!
After reading a lot of positive comments on here, and having an email chat with Kathy, I've just signed up for five courses with OPS 
I'm signed up for Breastfeeding support specialist (starting now), Labor progress support specialist, Birth planning support specialist, Cesarean/vbac support specialist (all in Sept), Sibling support specialist (Nov).
I've got my course here in the UK at the end of October too!
DH is thinking I must be insane, but I'm so hyped!!

Hmmm. just email kathy. I can not remember what I paid. I think VBAC and Marketing are 50. each. I think I paid 300 for CBE.... but don't quote me on that. But its in the ballpark I think.
I think the breasfeeding is about 300, as well as doula cert. My daughter is doing the doula certification.

I am going to overload myself with classes as well. I am taking her VBAC support, labor support, birth planning one starting in Sept. I just started the BF one and am currently taking the perinatal one. ...........I did not see the sibling support one. Maybe next time......WHEW I am crazy!!! The perinatal one has been tough but she says the others are not so time consuming. Her classes are a great deal price wise. I have learned a tremendous amount from her. I am really glad I am taking the BF one as I just realized tonight that DONA is now requiring a BF class for certification.

Thanks for sharing the link! I hadn't heard of this program at all.
The CSect/VBAC program looks great! I may have to go through that one. And maybe the breastfeeding ones too.

They go from $50 up. The BF course is $225/ If you email Kathy, she'll be able to let you know prices.

All the courses have options to do it in a classroom or online. Online course happens over a course of a few months
