Question 3

Accepted Answer

Our courses can be paid for by Cash, Credit/Debit Cards and Bank Transfer.  Where instalments are available, these must be paid for by equal monthly credit/debit card subscriptions, which are interest-free. Due to the huge costs involved (which would have to be passed on to our learners), we do not offer Adult Learner Loans (19+/24+).

Question 4

What support do you offer when I qualify?

Accepted Answer

We are proud to be part of the largest network of health and wellness practitioners, anywhere!   Our Alumni benefit from many free online courses and workshops to help with their practice, we also have private mentoring groups where we can offer continuing support.   Most of our students have come to us through word of mouth, so it is absolutely in our best interest to ensure that we go above and beyond anyone else in terms of providing ongoing support for our graduates.  We are extremely proud that some of our Alumni from the start of our history, still keep in touch with us, from all over the globe!   Without sounding cliché, we do feel strongly that AHG keeps its family feel, as our students and graduates help stop our job feeling like work!

Question 5

Why are your courses cheaper than similar accredited ones?

Accepted Answer

We are a not-for-profit company, with a 25-year history, so we have built up a great network who help us to fill our courses.   Not only are we able to keep our costs low because of this, we do not employ sales/enrolment advisers, or have huge advertising and marketing costs, all of which have to be paid for by the end user.  The customer.
