How long does it take?
Most people complete it over a few weeks, but there's no time limit. Your progress is saved, so you can do a lesson at a time.
How long do I have access?
For life. Pay once and you can come back to the lessons and the handbook whenever you need them.
Do I get a certificate?
Yes. When you've completed every lesson and submitted the quiz, your Harmony at Home certificate is issued instantly in your account.
Do I need a first aid qualification?
