In-person vs online training (specifically Gottman)

Hi friends

I am an associate in Texas, and looking to progress from Gottman Level One to Level Two. I did Level One via on-demand, and now as I look to Level Two, I'm wrestling with whether I do on-demand again which is cheaper and more convenient, or if I pay nearly 2x as much (probably 3x when you consider a hotel) to do it online. Actually, as I write that out, I think I have my answer haha. But maybe someone can convince me that in-person is worth the extra money and inconvenience.

Specific to Gottman would be great, but in general, do you think in-person trainings are so far and away better that they're worth the cost and inconvenience?
