Format
Designed to offer you as much flexibility as you need, the course is based entirely on distance learning so that you can fit your studies around your own individual and personal lifestyle. Spread over 26 Units, each topic is both examined in depth and clearly explained in lay-mans terms. Should you find that you require assistance from your Tutor at any stage, he or she is always available to answer your questions and deal with your enquiries. The course is delivered to you electronically in Adobe .pdf format. This format provides us with the unique ability to update, develop, revise and refine the course on a regular basis. It also enables us to provide you with a lifetime of free, unlimited upgrades since there is no need for extremely costly reprints after each update (note that there have been 2 major upgrades since April 08!). For your convenience and our swift management and processing your work is expected to be completed electronically and submitted for review as attachments via email. If you don’t have a computer, your local library will have machines that you can use for free.
Course Length
Strong students could complete the course in a few months but is usually completed over a period of between 4-9 months. On average it takes around 80 hours to complete but it is entirely up to you how quickly you progress through the Units.
Important, Please Note…
With regard to the qualification obtained, there are several other courses on the market for students specifically seeking a diploma at the end of it. By design ours is not one of them.
Instead we offer a specialist course that has been designed by Absolute Perfection Wedding Consultancy. The company is widely recognised throughout the wedding industry in the UK, by both potential employers (other wedding consultancies and venues) and potential clients (couples getting married). The course is also highly recommended by our students.
Our priority is to offer a first class course and keep the cost as low as possible. You will no doubt be aware that our Advanced Certification is significantly less than other similar advanced diploma courses. This is because we do not need to factor in the costs of external examiners fees and additional external administration costs. This cuts down the cost of the course by up to several hundred pounds. It is probably the most in depth and intensive wedding course you will find on the market, set at the level of an Advanced Diploma, yet priced at the level of a 2 Day Wedding Planner Taster Course.
If you are looking specifically for a diploma qualification, our course is not the one for you. However, if you are looking for probably the best course of instruction in wedding design and management, its unlikely you will find a better course anywhere else. This includes a certificate you can display in your office and one for your website too!
