Home Study – NCCP Teaching and Learning

Home Study Program:

In the Home Study program, coaches will be asked to complete a series of exercises and tasks in the workbook and submit it for marking to an NCCP accredited Learning Facilitator. The length of time to complete a Home Study varies by course and learning style of the individual. The Home Study format relies heavily on self-directed learning.

All courses are given a 2 month completion period. Please contact CAO should you require an extension.
