Course Duration and Study Hours
Regardless of the face to face classes schedule (outlined above) there is no prescribed (or "set" or "fixed") schedule for the completion of the Course assessment. The trainer may strongly recommend that students complete the assessment in keeping with the progress of the classes through the Course material (Unit by Unit), but the student can decide according to their own needs or requirements which might be influenced by factors such as:
In the past, some highly motivated students with excellent reading and writing skills have worked intensively to complete the Certificate IV assessment requirements within 4 to 6 weeks. Other students have progressed strongly to get it done in 3 to 6 months. Still others have worked hard and taken 6 to 9 months, or a year or two.
Unless otherwise stated in any specific Course information, LTi allows students the following maximum time to complete the Courses:
Full Time vs Part Time
Students can choose to be "Full Time" or "Part Time". However, there is no additional fee for changing from Full Time to Part Time. Also, a Part Time student may finish the Course as quickly as a Full Time student without being disadvantaged in any way.
Based on the official hours allocated to these Australian Government accredited Courses, the time frames give below apply to the completion of the Courses. These time frames apply regardless of how long any period of face to face class attendance continues.
Please note that students may complete the Course learning and assessment requirements in more or less time due to their ability, motivation, and many other considerations including personal choice or circumstances (as outlined above):
10695NAT - Certificate IV in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages):
Full-time: 12 months allowing 12 - 15 hours per week
Part-time: 24 months allowing 6 - 8 hours per week
10688NAT - Diploma of TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages):
Full-time: 18 months allowing 15 - 20 hours per week
Part-time: 30 months allowing 10 - 12 hours per week
Face to Face Class Benefits
Students may prefer to attend face to face classes for reasons such as:
- ability to study and comprehend the Course material
- the pace at which the face to face classes sessions are proceeding
- how much independent time can be given to study and completion of assessment work each day or week in addition to the time spent attending the face to face classes
- English language knowledge and competence
- past experience or knowledge about any kind of teaching, especially TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages)
- motivation to finish the Course quickly
- desire to do extra study and research along the way (which may be more than what is required to meet the Course requirements)
- other personal factors including health, family, financial and employment circumstances

Face to Face Class Benefits
Students may prefer to attend face to face classes for reasons such as:
- meeting and interacting with other people in person
- the focus on learning that comes by being present with others who are also focused on achieving the learning goals being shared by the group
- the greater range of communication options that exist because of the dynamics such as body language, spacial awareness, and other interpersonal events that facilitate the sharing of information and concepts
- the discipline and lack of distraction that occurs in a the face to face classroom environment
