Learn, Relax, Certify, and get CEU's in Puerto Rico

Experience the perfect blend of professional development and relaxation in Puerto Rico. As a US territory, no passport or visa is required for US nationals, and English is widely spoken. We suggest you stay in Ocean Park, San Juan, where you can find nice, affordable Airbnb apartments within walking distance of a beautiful beach and Calle Loiza, a lively street known for its vibrant weekend nightlife, restaurants, cafes, food trucks, and local food 'cafeterias'. Puerto Rico is a tourist-friendly country where almost everybody in San Juan speaks English as a second language or can at least understand and make themselves understood.

Plan to arrive a day or two before the workshop or stay a little longer to explore one of the oldest and most charming walled cities in the Americas, beautifully conserved. Additionally, visit the only rainforest national park in the USA, enjoy plenty of beaches, and book a tour to the rainforest during the day, take a dip in the crystal clear mountain waters, and then have a kayak tour at night in the bioluminescent waters of Fajardo. Come on, it's just a jump!
