The main administration of N.O.D. (membership administration and webmaster) will be on vacation from September 10 to September 20. Any inquiries for these departments will not be addressed until after the 20th.
We are also aware that there are some persistent issues with the "Activity Wall" and are still awaiting the software provider's solution, but it may be that a solution will not be implemented until after the 20th, for which we apologize.
Thank you for your understanding.
We are proud to announce that as of today, the "Ovate Youth Course" has officially been launched!
The Ovate Youth Course is an immediate follow-up to the Bardic Youth Course, which must be completed first before enrolment is possible. Naturally, the Ovate Youth Course is also written to be aimed toward children and teenagers, although adults are welcome to take the course too, of course. The course is entirely free of charge, but you need to be a registered member of the New Order of Druids (which is, as you know, also free), and you need to log in at least once every 60 days. If you already registered an account in the Grove of Dana college, you can use this same account to join the Ovate Youth Course (as well as any other courses).
The Ovate Youth Course is based on the same system as the Bardic Youth Course, which makes it a self-paced course which works with assignments. This doesn't mean that the student is expected to write tons of text in essays, and we have kept essays to an absolute minimum, giving more attention to creativity and experience.
It is possible to see a preview of both the Bardic Youth Course and Ovate Youth Course here:

We are happy to announce that the new Druid Specialization Course is now available. The purpose of this course to explore the soul-image, your dán. This independent, self-designed course structure allows for students to continue their druidic studies in a direction of their choosing. Focus is on embodying dán in creative ways and the course requires that all students complete a Service Project.
This course is only available to Upgraded Members, and you are required to have completed the Bardic Course, Ovate Course and Druid Course respectively, before you can enrol into the Druid Specialization Course.
Special thanks go out to Maya St. Clair for writing and setting up this course.
Dear members,
You may want to know that a new series of courses has been added to the Grove of Dana online Druid college: the Celtic Polytheism Courses.
Celtic polytheism, sometimes known as Celtic paganism, refers to the religious beliefs and practices of the ancient Celtic peoples of Western Europe prior to Christianization. In these courses you will study general Celtic history, philosophy, seership studies, environmental studies, and practical exercises. Currently, this series of courses contains a first and second year.
The Celtic Polytheism Courses are only available to Upgraded Members and come with the guidance of a mentor. For more information, make sure to check out the "Druid College" tab on the main NOD website, where you will find that the courses overview layout has been given a thorough facelift as well.
To conclude, we would like to thank Maya for writing these courses and for making them available to the New Order of Druids!
We would like to draw your attention to the Introduction Brochure of the New Order of Druids, which can be printed and folded in order to spread among your friends or elsewhere. You can download it here in PDF format:

The Meditations Course is a practical journaling course involving meditations and visualisations which are intended to demonstrate your own personal growth in this aspect of personal practice. The course provides 39 meditations and journaling exercises to be performed over a period of 13 months. By keeping a journal you will be able to look back on your entries and see the progress you make and this will aid in your future development.
