"I ask every new team member to watch Strengths Academy - it answers most of the questions why we focus on strengths. The modules are short, so they don't distract people from their daily responsibilities, but provide quick access to the answers team members might be seeking about strengths. It's saved me countless hours of explaining the basics, and people actually complete it because it's not overwhelming."

How long does it take to complete a course in the Strengths Academy?

For example, the course “Developing and Nurturing Strengths” takes about one hour of video time, plus 1-2 hours for exercises and reflection. Most learners complete it over 2-3 weeks, spending 15-20 minutes per session. You set your own pace and complete the exercises at your convenience.

Are the courses suitable for complete beginners?

Absolutely. Our courses use everyday language and real-world examples. We’ve designed the content to be valuable for both newcomers to strengths development and experienced practitioners.

Is there a recommended pace for completing the courses?

While you can binge-watch all videos in one sitting, we recommend spacing them out to allow time for practice and reflection. Most learners complete one video per week, allowing time to apply the concepts in real situations.

Can I pause my learning and come back to it after a few weeks?

Absolutely, and you can resume exactly where you left off, even if several weeks have passed. All your modules and courses will remain accessible.

Is there a recommended sequence for watching the videos?

The modules and courses are designed for videos to build upon each other, so we recommend following the suggested sequence. However, each video also works as a standalone learning unit if you need to focus on a specific topic.
