What to expect when you study with RuralBiz
Our courses are self-paced and online, so you have a lot of control over when you complete your study and how quickly you move through your units. The standard unit duration is 8 weeks, but you can request extensions of up to another 8 weeks per unit to help manage your course load with peak production cycles on your farm and your busy life.
You will have a Guardian Angel check in with you throughout your study to make sure you are on track and to help resolve any issues that may arise. We also have a Literacy support team if you need extra help with spelling, grammar or numeracy.
