Frequently asked questions
How is an online course different from an in-person course?
While the experience of a course online and in-person are different, the outcomes are the same. Safer Edge has trained thousands of humanitarian and development professionals on courses since 2016. Our Learning and Development team worked hard to retain all required learning objective while making the course more accessible and inclusive.
What do you mean by e-learning?
E-Learning is a specific type of online learning where participants are able to engage with the course through quizzes, activities, scenarios, and a range of media. E-learning is different from remote training (such as through Skype or Zoom) and online videos or slides.
I have a very poor internet connection. Can I still take the course?
Yes! Using our iOS and Android apps, participants can download the HEAT modules when they have access to internet, complete it offline and their progress will automatically sync when they reconnect to the internet.
Our organisation would like to enrol a large number of staff. How do we do that?
If your organisation has 5 or more people you wish to register for a HEAT course, we can easily register them in bulk. We offer discounts for all groups over 5. Contact Safer Edge directly at operations@saferedge.com to register or learn more.
How long do I have to complete the course?
We realise that different people learn at different speeds and each of us will have different circumstances which influence how quickly we can complete the course. We encourage everyone to the course within a month. However, each course purchased will remain on Safer Edge Learn for a year.
