Detailed Module and Elective descriptions
What is the time commitment?
Most Research Essentials modules take only 2-4 hours to complete. A course of around 30 modules and electives may take around a year to complete, and a Skill Set or Competency (about 8-10 modules) around 6 months.
Please note that all PRAXIS courses must be completed within 12 months of enrolment.
What sort of qualification do I get at the end?
After completing each module, you will get a certificate of completion that you can download. This can be used for accruing CPD points: 24 points for a core skill set, and 3 CPD points for each module.
Are there assessment tasks?
Yes – each module has 3-4 short answer or multiple-choice assessment tasks built-in so you can check your knowledge as you progress.
How do I know what is the right choice for me?
- We suggest you have a look at the Detailed Module and Elective outline brochure. This may help you decide which modules/or combination of modules and electives you want to study.
- Our Skills Set Brochure will help to give you an idea of a pathway of learning - from Skill Set 1 (introductory level) to Skill Set 4 (advanced level). You can also design your own Skill Set - just choose your own combination of Modules and Electives matched to your unique needs, for the same price.
