1. What kind of student support will I receive?

The Student Services Co-ordinator, who is a qualified Lecturer, will see that your questions are answered by email or phone in 24 hours or less Monday to Friday.

All students have access to the Online Student Portal, which contains links to news, course information, professional associations and other relevant resources.

Administrative support is also available, with a turnaround time of 24 hours during weekdays. If you are studying by correspondence, a Lecturer will answer your questions with a turnaround time of 24 hours or less.

You will also receive a comprehensive Student Handbook that walks you through your course. Each subject will be clearly laid out and will allow you to progress as quickly as you feel comfortable.

2. Do I have to give up my day job to do the course?

Not at all! We have available a wide range of options so that you don’t need to give up your day job and you can still complete the Diploma course in 9 months! If studying on-campus, you can choose 9 weekends (sat & sun) or 9 weekdays (mon & tues) or an evening format (every mon evening) or a midday format (every wed midday). You can even do the entire course from the comfort of your own home with our home study / correspondence program.

3. Are any payment options or financial assistance available?

ACM offers a range of flexible payment options making all courses affordable.

SUBJECT Payment Option
If you prefer to pay by instalments then this option is best for you as you simply pay for each individual subject when you are ready.

PACKAGE Payment Option
This option allows you to pay for two subjects together and therefore receive a discount for each package.

FULL Payment Option
The most cost-saving option for you is to pay the full upfront course fee prior as you will receive a substantial discount.

You can complete your training in as little as 3 months or take up to 3 years. The choice is yours.

In addition to the flexible payment options, you may like to contact your local financial institution to discuss student loan packages.

Austudy is available if you meet Centrelink’s criteria. Applications for assistance are assessed by Centrelink, contact your nearest Centrelink office to discuss your eligibility.

4. I haven’t studied for years, are there any exams?

Don´t worry! To get you into the massage industry as quickly as possible you simply need practical skills. We don’t have stressful, written tests or exams! You participate in relevant knowledge checks, practical evaluations and online learning experiences from the comfort of your home. We give you everything you need to know, so you learn only the material that you need. You will leave ACM ´job ready´, full of knowledge and highly motivated.
