Where do I access the course?
When you enrol, you'll be redirected to Teachable, our secure learning platform, where you can complete your purchase and access your course. You'll be able to sign in to Teachable whenever you'd like to continue learning, subject to the access terms shown at checkout.
Can I watch the course on my phone or tablet?

Is the course suitable if I live outside the UK?
You're very welcome to join from overseas. Many of the principles around budgeting, design and renovation planning are relevant wherever you live! However, the course is created from a UK perspective, so planning regulations, building requirements and professional processes may differ in your country.
Will I still need an architect, designer or builder?
Depending on your project, yes. The course is designed to help you understand the renovation process and feel more confident working with professionals, rather than replacing their expertise. Every property and project is different, and you'll still need appropriate professional advice where required.
