  • Includes access to the FC Forum where students can interact with each other and the Faculty. Access to the FC Forum is for 12 months from when a student begins the FC. After 12 months, FC Forum access is changed to read only and will remain in place for as long as we maintain the Forum.

Students typically require about 150 hours in order to complete the FC at a reasonable pace.
We expect that a student can complete the FC in 4 weeks, if studying full-time. The maximum time allowed to complete the FC is 12 months.

On successful completion of the FC with an overall average of 90% or more, you qualify to enroll in the Consultant Training Program (CTP), additional fees apply. You will have 4 months from the date you complete the FC to enroll in the CTP, after which you will no longer be eligible for enrollment in the CTP.

Soil Sponge Workshop (SSW):

  • Series of 5 online/virtual, participatory workshop sessions covering: what the Soil Sponge is, how it can be restored and what the benefits are to various stakeholders.
