Common questions

Will I receive a certificate for each course?

Yes. You will receive an individual CPD-accredited certificate for each successfully completed course. Once you have completed all courses in the programme, you will also receive an additional CBEHx Professional Certificate recognising the full learning pathway and its combined CPD learning hours. Read more in the Support Centre

Are the courses CPD-accredited?

Yes. Each course included in the programme is individually CPD-accredited. The additional consolidated Professional Certificate is issued by CBEHx and records the courses completed and their combined CPD learning hours. Read more in the Support Centre

Can my previous learning count?

No. Courses purchased or completed individually before enrolling in a Professional Certificate Programme do not count towards its requirements. To receive the consolidated CBEHx Professional Certificate, you must purchase the complete programme and successfully complete all included courses, or complete the requirements through an eligible annual subscription. Previously awarded individual course certificates remain valid. Read more in the Support Centre

Can I buy courses individually?

Yes. All constituent courses remain available for individual purchase. However, courses purchased individually do not count towards a Professional Certificate Programme, and individual purchases do not include the consolidated Professional Certificate. To earn it, purchase the complete programme or meet the requirements through an eligible annual subscription. Read more in the Support Centre

How long can I access the courses?

Standalone Professional Certificate purchases provide 12 months of course access from enrolment, subject to the published terms. If you access the courses through a subscription, access continues while your subscription remains active. Certificates already earned remain valid after access ends. Read more in the Support Centre
