Can You Accredit a Self-Paced Course

Absolutely! Wellness Canada Accreditation (WCA) can accredit a variety of educational offerings, including self-paced courses.  We understand that modern learning often happens online and at the learner's own pace. Our goal is to ensure quality and ethical standards regardless of how the content is delivered.   

What We Look for in Self-Paced Courses:

Just like with any course we review, we have specific criteria for self-paced programs to ensure they offer a valuable and effective learning experience. Here are some of the key things we evaluate:

• Clear Learning Objectives: Are the goals of the course clearly stated upfront so students know what they'll achieve?    
  

• Logical Structure: Is the content organized in a way that makes sense and allows for steady progress?    
  

• Engaging Content: Does the course use a variety of formats (video, text, audio, etc.) to keep learners interested and cater to different learning styles?    
  

• Student Support: Does the course offer adequate support for students who might have questions or need assistance? This could include instructor access, FAQs, or a community forum.    
  

• Assessment and Feedback: Are there opportunities for students to check their understanding and receive feedback on their progress?    
  

• Ethical Practices: Does the course adhere to ethical marketing and pricing practices, and does it protect student data?    
  

• Accessibility: Is the course platform user-friendly and accessible on various devices?  Are there options for students with disabilities?
