The Distance Learning Aromatherapy Diploma Course consists of four modules designed for students like you, who prefer to study at home. Your learning is based on the course notes supplied, and background reading of aromatherapy texts which you receive with the course.

You will complete each module and the required assessments successfully before proceeding to the next module under the guidance of a personal tutor, enabling you to produce a high standard of work. The course is ultimately assessed by an exam which can be taken either one our academy locations or online via video call (see our Online Examination Policy for details on remote exam qualification and details)

You are advised to take between 12 and 36 months to complete all modules, although you are not penalised for taking longer. While studying, you may apply for insurance as a student practitioner.
