Pre-Course Assessments
Two quick, standardized assessments. They give Dr. Rikki Permenter a baseline so she can walk with you well — and let us track how the forge actually changes men.
Complete this four times: baseline (before you arrive), immediately after the course, 2 weeks later, and 6 months later. Just pick the right timepoint below each time. Takes about 3 minutes.
