# How long does each course take?

You’re in full control of your learning pace – start, pause, and finish whenever it suits you.
* No deadlines
* Lifetime access – your course never expires
* Learn anytime, anywhere

**Average completion time:** 2–3 months

**Estimated study hours for certifications:** 60–90 hours

The length of your study depends on:
* Your background, experience and existing knowledge
* How much time you want to devote. Whether you can free up 1 hour per week or binge-study for 10 hours per day, it’s all possible!
* How much time you’ll end up spending in the underlying scientific research and links you find in your course

Our students can get quite immersed in and “addicted” to the content, so the average completion time is between 2 and 3 months.

However, you may finish quicker or just take it a bit slower – especially if you’ve got other commitments like work, other studies etc. It's entirely up to you.
