EduCareDo Foundation Course in Anthroposophy (link is external)
The EduCareDo Foundation Course provides the foundations of Anthroposophy within 26 lessons over the course of a year (one lesson every two weeks). It is a self-directed distance learning course based on the principal ideas of Rudolf Steiner, called Anthroposophy or Spiritual Science.
Participants can begin any time and work at their own pace.
Anthroposophy sheds light on understanding the physical, soul and spiritual aspects of the human being and its relationship to the other kingdoms of nature - from the soil, plants, animals, elements, ethers and right out to the cosmos.
