New Member Orientation

Hi, new friend! Welcome to COMPEL Training and the COMPEL New Member Orientation Course! 

Joining the Courtyard is optional, but is a huge part of your membership experience.  We encourage all members to join because they miss out on so much fun and inspiration!

Today we are bringing you a special video featuring Kate Shepherd, the COMPEL Project Manager. 

One of the most valuable aspects of being a COMPEL member is having an online community of like-minded writers who get you and your calling. We know being a writer can often feel lonely and isolated, but friend, you are no longer alone on this writing journey! 

Although much of our interaction and teachings happen on Facebook, the COMPEL Course Library offers the most extensive collection of teachings about writing and publishing you will find anywhere. 

As you may know, COMPEL Training is the only online training site out there that provides publishing opportunities for members.

With thousands of members who participate in our Community Groups, it takes a village to keep them all running smoothly and maintain high levels of engagement and excitement all year round. 

These studies are typically four to six weeks in length. They are so unique because our members are given direct access to learn from and engage with authors and their publishing house editors in real-time in private Facebook groups!
