FAQ's
How long will the course take to complete?
There are around 4 hours of video content; however, with the exercises, reflection sessions, and 'homework' (fun homework, we promise), we expect the course to take around 3-5 days, depending on how quickly you want to progress through the content.
Can I take this course on any device?
Yes! You can complete this course on any sized device, providing it has a connection to the internet. We do recommend using a larger screen where possible to capture all the detail that a bigger screen offers, but it is not essential.
What language is the training delivered in?
Currently, the course is only delivered in English. There are currently no subtitles on this course though we expect these to be added in the near future.
Is the Facial Action Coding System covered in this course?
Yes and no. The vast majority of people do not need to (or want to) learn the full Facial Action Coding System manual (it can take over 100 hours spread over months). With that said, a working knowledge of the Facial Action Coding System can be valuable to help make finer distinctions when analyzing facial expressions. We will therefore make sure you have enough knowledge of the Facial Action Coding System so that you can use it when analyzing the universal expressions of emotion and other common facial expressions we encounter in day-to-day life. Â
