Are There Benefits to Studying the Course in Person?
There are a number of reasons why we suggest students attend the three-day intensive in person. The course material is complex, and there is a lot of it. Students get to study for three days under the watchful eyes of an experienced celebrant and trainer, who will guide and instruct you through the more complicated facets of celebrancy. Students learning in person will spend one entire day navigating the difficult to understand legal aspects of marriage, adoption, and immigration, with detailed walkthroughs of all official forms celebrants will come into contact with. If you choose to study online or via distance learning, we are there to assist you, but you don't have the three days of comprehensive training with an instructor, which gets you so much more motivated and confident to complete your studies. Assignments are also easier to complete for students attending the course in person.
Prerequisites
Are There Any Prerequisites for This Course?
Officially there are no prerequisites for this training. However, we expect students to be confident public speakers who enjoy being in the public eye, and with a solid grasp of the written and spoken English language. Students must have access to a computer and enough computer literacy to complete the workbooks and return to us via email.
