At the academy we
encourage personal growth, balance and sensitivity
that qualify each student to work successfully as a
professional therapist. We provide open learning
programs that ensure the flexibility and
professionalism required for you to achieve your
dreams. We have a continuous, qualified staff of
lecturers whose intelligence, enthusiasm, and
creativity inspire an open and free atmosphere for
learning.
How are programs delivered?
Healing Hands International uses an open learning
model. In terms of this model each learning program
can be completed at your own pace within a 2 year
bracket. Should the program contain practical
contact hours, these should be completed at the
college on the dates as prescribed by the college.
These sessions are presented concurrently on
scheduled dates for a predetermined number of
sessions. There are various starting dates for these
sessions and a student can opt to start these
sessions whenever they are ready within the 2 year
period. Schedules for the different starting dates
and times for the different programs are available
from the college and will be included in your
learner pack. If contact hours are required for a
specific program, you will need to attend these
classes consecutively for at least one run, but
these can be repeated as many times as you feel
necessary within the 2 years at no extra charge.
