About our certificates

Last reviewed 11 August 2026.

What a certificate means

A certificate confirms that the named account completed all guided modules, submitted the required lesson notebook portfolio and achieved the disclosed combined pass standard across module checks, writing and the internal final assessment. Each certificate has a unique verification code and current status.

What it does not mean

It is not a degree, regulated qualification, academic credit, professional licence, DBS or identity check, or proof that the holder is competent to provide professional, religious, medical, scientific or investigative services.

Why the courses still have substance

Formal status and intellectual value are separate questions. Each level is designed around approximately 16 leisurely hours of guided reading, six topic-specific Curator Case Labs, authoritative public-source work, a private writing portfolio, revision, capstone preparation and assessment. The overall pass mark is 75%, with at least 60% required in the final assessment. The aim is informed cultural inquiry, transparent reasoning and enjoyable independent study.
