How it works
You can start right now, on your phone, without giving us anything.
- Pick a courseEach course page shows how long it takes, how many questions are in the assessment, the mark you need and what the optional certificate costs, before you begin.
- Study the modules, freeModules are short. Each one ends with a quick check that tells you straight away why an answer is right or wrong. Your place is saved on your device, so you can stop and come back.
- Sit the assessment, freeQuestions are drawn at random from a larger bank, and marked on our server. There is no time limit, and your answers save as you go.
- Not this time? Try again, freeYou will see which topics to review, then you can sit a fresh set of questions. After several tries in an hour we ask you to pause briefly and look back over the lessons.
- If you pass, the certificate is your choiceIt costs NZ$24.90 for a standard course, or NZ$34.90 for a longer one. You enter your name and email, pay once through Stripe, and get the PDF on screen straight away, with a copy by email.
Do I need an account?
No. A small cookie remembers your progress on the device you are using. If you want to carry on from another device, My learning can email you a link. We only ask for your name and email if you decide to buy a certificate.
Two kinds of certificate
The title on a certificate always matches what actually happened, so nobody is misled about it.
| Certificate | What you did | What it records |
|---|---|---|
| Certificate of Completion | Completed every module, then passed the assessment | That you did the online training and passed its assessment |
| Certificate of Knowledge Assessment | Went straight to the assessment and passed, on courses that allow this | That you passed the online assessment, and nothing about the modules |
Buying several at once
If you have passed 2 or more courses, you can add their certificates to one payment and pay 20% less. You can only buy a certificate for a course you have passed.
What to check first
If a job, contract or funder asks for a specific qualification, ask them whether this meets it before you pay. Sitting the training first costs nothing. More about what the certificate shows.
