Frequently Asked Questions


When does the course start and finish?
You will have lifetime access to the course content. From the date of your enrollment, you have nine months to apply for certification. We do offer the opportunity to request a three-month extension under certain circumstances (for example but not limited to long-term and/or disruptive illness), but once you pass your deadline, whether nine--or twelve months if extended--you will have to pay for the course again to restart the clock. This is in service to you, so that you can launch or relaunch your book coaching business as a certified book coach within the next year or less.
