# Courses & I AM Program FAQs

Common questions about choosing courses, live cohorts, course access, certificates, and deeper learning pathways.

## How do I choose the right course?

Choose according to age, current need, readiness, and learning style rather than simply choosing the most advanced option.

## Are THC courses self-paced?

The current online course catalogue is primarily self-paced.

The **I AM Program** is different: it is a live 6-week cohort.

## Is I AM suitable for beginners?

The current program page says prior meditation experience is not required.

The most important prerequisite is genuine curiosity and willingness to investigate experience.

## How much time does the live I AM Program require?

The current format includes 1 90-minute live session each week and around 20–30 minutes of daily practice for 6 weeks.

## Do certificates make me a facilitator?

No.

A course-completion certificate is not the same as facilitator certification or a clinical qualification.

## Can schools reuse personal course content?

Personal enrolment should not automatically be treated as permission to reproduce paid materials across a school or organisation.

Institutional use should follow the relevant licensing terms.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://knowledge.theholisticcare.com/knowledge/frequently-asked-questions/courses-and-i-am-program-faqs.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
