How much support will you give me to stay committed and focused for online study?<\/h5>

Our certification courses are for determined people who are excited to learn, accept responsibility, and most importantly, are willing to invest the time into their own growth.\n\n

A major difference that sets us apart from many online training companies is our investment into supporting our students to finish what they start with a variety of support.\n\n

All new students receive access to our Study Tips for Online Learning PDF Guide and video training class<\/b>, packed with plenty of brain-based tools and strategies to make learning a priority by managing your mind, time and calendar.\n\n

We provide yearly study calendars<\/b> with examples of how to plan out and structure your study time and be consistent with online learning at home. We encourage you to cultivate structure and consistency that will support you long after graduation, as these skills will also prepare you for running your own wellbeing business. \n\n

Our student support team<\/b> is only an email, message or phone call away, and we generally reply within 48 hours of receiving your email. We may offer a support call if you're really stuck and share helpful strategies. Certification students are invited to optional 30 minute 1:1 support calls with their mentor assessor after each workbook is assessed where they can discuss progress and ask questions to overcome challenges.\n\n

You will also have the opportunity to join our private student Facebook Group<\/b> to connect with fellow students, graduates and course facilitators. We encourage student-led WhatsApp groups<\/b> and have cultivated a wonderful community that are very supportive and always willing to help each other out.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Are there any post-graduate offerings?<\/h5>

    Yes! By completing a certification course you will be fully qualified without needing further study to get started, however if you would like to continue learning and developing, we are regularly adding to our postgraduate options for professional development or personal growth. \n\n

    Additional courses are available for Advanced program level or continuing professional development (CPD). These options are perfect for narrowing your expertise to a specialist area.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
