Students are at liberty to follow the course at their own speed within the time period of the course. This means that it is of no matter where they live, in whichever time zone from USA to Europe. However, course lessons are arranged on a weekly basis and for maximum learning it is recommended that students keep abreast of each week's lesson with:
¤ assigned chapters in the required textbook ¤ supplemental information in the online lessons ¤ an assignment or quiz to complete each week ¤ participation in forum chats
Students usually require about 4-5 hours per week to keep up with the course schedule.
To complete the weekly assignments, a digital camera is required. A scanner is useful, but not essential. Students are expected to know the basic computer skills such as sending emails, creating a word document, making tables, cutting and pasting and uploading digital photos.
The experiential nature of the course is very powerful and can result in significant results being achieved on many levels, physical (colour, design and décor), emotional (improvement of relationships with oneself and others) and spiritual.
