Today we celebrate the hardy souls that have completed the first-ever Knight-Thompson Speechwork Certification Course. Those of you who have done a six-day workshop can, perhaps, imagine the kind of focus and stamina it took to keep at it for three weeks. Please join us in congratulating them on their hard work!
