where mind-bending and heart-rending
learning meet Catherine of Siena Virtual College is a non-for-profit organization. The development of our courses is financed by Charitable Trusts. However, for the day-to-day running of the College we vitally need tuition from those who can afford to do so.
Need tuition assistance? Our scholarship funds are limited, but, for the moment, we have not turned anyone away, esp. those women living in developing countries. Applications for full (one-time) and partial scholarships are due five days prior to the beginning of a new set of classes. Click here to apply.

P3 Developing Management Skills |
"Many male managers (like Tom Peters) care much more about
nurturing their people (long-term) rather than maximizing profits (short-term).
Yet, in truth, not all women are free of authoritarian instincts either. Thus,
in our modern world, the great divide is not between men and women as such but
between styles of leadership." |

Given the purposeful size and composition of each class, anyone dropping out or falling behind in a given class reduces the learning for all concerned. At times, however, we understand that one might have to drop out or fall behind due to unforseen and tragic circumstances. We regret to say, however, that tuition cannot be returned in this instance due to the fact that mentors and tutors have been hired and potential students have been turned away. In the case where someone needs to leave a class due to unforseen and tragic circumstances, they can receive a partial credit toward a future class if they notify their tutor or the Registrar of their circumstances in a timely fashion.
The easiest way to make your payment is through a credit card. Our system is very secure and you will receive two email acknowledgements: one from us and one from the online bank.
If you experience any problem while making your payment,
please, write to the Registrar here:
and she will help
set it up for you!
