Frequently asked questions
Is enrolment still open?
Yes. Enrolment for the 2026–2027 course is still open. New candidates can generally join until around December. Joining later becomes more difficult because a substantial part of the course content will already have been covered.
When do the groups meet?
Secondary Education has two groups: Tuesday mornings from 9:30 am to 2:00 pm, or Thursday afternoons from 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm. Candidates join one group, not both.
The EOI group meets on alternate Wednesdays from 9:30 am to 2:00 pm. On the Wednesdays when the group does not meet, the lesson is published on the private platform.
Is attendance at the academy compulsory?
No. Attending in person is entirely optional in both courses. Classes held at the academy are streamed live for candidates who prefer to follow them remotely.
Are lessons recorded?
All lessons held at the academy are streamed live. In addition, EOI lessons held at the academy are recorded because there is no afternoon group. This enables candidates who work in the morning to follow the course. Secondary Education lessons are not recorded.
Do I have to travel to the academy for oral defence practice?
No. Candidates who cannot travel to the academy can complete their practice oral defences from home.
