Instruction in the Marquette Method is available on-line. Your course begins with on-line, self-paced instruction that can be completed in your own timeframe (in as little as 2 hours or longer, depending on your pace). The engaged couple that needs a certificate of completion will need to complete a month of charting. The couple will meet with a MM teacher (MMT) who makes sure the couple is confident in using the Marquette Method of NFP a certificate will be issued at the end of this meeting.
After completing the registration forms you will be sent an email with a link to the learning platform -- D2L to access the course. After completing the on-line course, you will need to complete a quiz and contact your certified Marquette Method (MM) instructor to schedule a consultation and follow-up.* All MM teachers are health care professionals with a post-graduate certificate in the Marquette Method of NFP.
