How much time should I be spending on the course?

ACT for Beginners, Trauma-Focused ACT, ACT for Adolescents, ACT for Depression and Anxiety, and ACT as a Brief Intervention are online courses that each run for six weeks. ACT for Grief and Loss runs for four weeks. Plan on spending about two - three hours per week on the course. We encourage you to schedule a specific time in the week to dive into content.

How is this course structured?

Course content is released weekly. You can review previous weeks’ content at any time during the course, but you’ll have to wait for each week to be released before you can access it. Each week’s content includes a variety of engaging learning experiences, including video, audio, and written material. You can immerse yourself in one sitting or tackle the content gradually throughout the week. At the end of each week’s content is a quiz, mostly multiple-choice and true/false questions. To obtain CE/CME credit, you must finish the course with 75% correct overall.

What will I have access to during a course?

You’ll have access to course content as its released - engaging videos, experiential exercises and a library packed with enriching resources and articles. All written content, including PDFs and some audio content, is available for download. Please note that video content is only accessible during your course. You’ll also have exclusive access to the forum during your course. It’s an incredible opportunity to engage with Russ Harris and other students. We encourage you to ask questions and post feedback for an immersive learning experience. After all 6 weeks of the course content has been released, you will have an additional 2 weeks of forum access and a further 14 weeks of access to all materials (22 weeks in total). For ACT for Grief and Loss, after all the 4 weeks of the course content has been released, you will have an additional 4 weeks of forum access and a further 14 weeks of access to all materials (22 weeks in total). You’ll have access to your course and read-only access to the forum in this time. Complete any unfinished work or go back and review the content again. It may give you a chance to dive deeper into the bonus content - it’s up to you.

Who are the courses suitable for?

All ACT courses are designed for mental health professionals, those who are licensed, interning or studying in the field, both undergraduate and postgraduate. This can include but is not limited to counselors, coaches, therapists, psychologists, psychiatrists, nurses, GPs, OTs, social and youth workers. ACT for Beginners is an introductory course and suitable for those with beginner-level knowledge. It’s also a great refresher course for intermediate-level practitioners. The ACT for Adolescents, Trauma-Focused ACT, ACT for Depression and Anxiety Disorders, ACT as a Brief Intervention and ACT for Grief and Loss courses are more advanced and suitable for practitioners who have already completed an introductory course, such as ACT for Beginners or a two day ACT workshop with a recognised ACT trainer. Please be aware that these advanced workshops include descriptions, videotapes, audiotapes, and/or reenactments of actual therapy sessions. Some of the case material may contain graphic descriptions of violence, sexual activity or other content which could be disturbing, especially for participants with similar experiences. The courses are intended for health professionals and advanced students, who participate at their own risk. If you find portions of the program upsetting, or if you need assistance for any other reason, please notify one of the trainers.

Do I need to be online at specific times?

The great news is you don’t have to be online at specific times. The course content will be released weekly and can be accessed any time that’s convenient for you. However, we encourage you to schedule a specific time in the week to dive into course work.

How and when can I access the course?

We know you’d love to dive in immediately, but the course will be available on the launch date. On the day the course begins you’ll receive an email detailing how to access the course - keep an eye on your inbox.

What happens if I miss a week or fall behind?

Sometimes life happens and that’s why we’ve made previous weeks’ content available during the course. If you fall behind, you can catch up at your own pace. After all 6 weeks of the course content has been released, you will have an additional 2 weeks of forum access and a further 14 weeks of access to all materials (22 weeks in total). For ACT for Grief and Loss, after all the 4 weeks of the course content has been released, you will have an additional 2 weeks of forum access and a further 16 weeks of access to all materials (22 weeks in total). Use this time to catch up, review or dive deeper into the bonus content - it’s up to you.

How often will the courses be offered?

Our ACT for Beginners, Trauma-Focused ACT, ACT for Adolescents, ACT for Depression and Anxiety, ACT as a Brief Intervention, and ACT for Grief and Loss courses will be available multiple times during the year. Keep in the loop about future course dates, and receive free ACT resources, by subscribing to our mailing list. The link is at the bottom of our webpage or you can click below - https://psychwire.com/harris/courses

How will the online forum work?

Course participants will post their questions and then Russ and the ACT Trainers will respond in due course. Other course participants may also post replies. Please note that Russ and the ACT Trainers will only be active in the forum for 8 weeks from the course launch date. Once the forum is no longer live, you will still be able to view previous posts on the forum but you will not be able to post any further questions during the grace period.

How do the online courses differ from the workshops?

The online courses are equivalent to multi-day live workshops. Essentially, the content for both the online courses and the workshops are the same. However with our six week online courses, there’s more opportunity to dive into the content, take advantage of the bonus material and ask questions for Russ Harris and the trainers in our interactive forum.

Can I get a course extension?

Due to the structure and build of the course, we’re unable to grant extensions. If you’re facing serious difficulties outside your control, contact our customer service team. Our team can discuss with you the possibility of deferring to a future course. If your deferral request gets approved, you will be subjected to our deferral terms in which your enrollment will be removed from the current intake and you will receive a coupon code which shall be valid within one(1) year from the date of request. If you are unable to use the code within its validity period, your enrolment will be forfeited. After all 6 weeks of the course content has been released, you will have an additional 2 weeks of forum access and a further 14 weeks of access to all materials (22 weeks in total). For ACT for Grief and Loss, after all the 4 weeks of the course content has been released, you will have an additional 2 weeks of forum access and a further 16 weeks of access to all materials (22 weeks in total). This may give you the time to catch up. Get in touch by clicking on the blue chat button at the bottom right of your screen, or email support@psychwire.org

Why was I charged a foreign transaction fee?

Psychological Flexibility Pty Ltd has partnered with Psychwire Pty Limited located in Australia to produce and distribute their online courses and for this reason, your transaction has been processed in Australia. A foreign transaction fee may have been charged by your issuing bank for this reason. Unfortunately we cannot provide any details on the amount of the fee and whether it will be applied as this fee is NOT charged by Psychwire . The vast majority of our international sales have not incurred a fee at all, with a very small percentage receiving a minor charge. Psychwire Pty Ltd does not hold responsibility for this charge and if you are charged a foreign transaction fee, please contact your bank directly.

Quiz Questions and Score Calculation

An overall quiz score of 75% or higher is required in order to receive CE/CME credits. Where are the quiz questions located? Quiz questions are located at the end of each week of the course. What is the format of the questions? Most questions are multiple choice, some are true/false. How many questions are there? Between 64 and 160 quiz questions, depending upon the course. Do all of the questions count toward my score? Yes. All quiz questions are counted toward your score. What happens if I answer a multiple choice question incorrectly? If you miss a multiple choice question, you will immediately have two more opportunities to answer the question correctly. If you answer correctly on your second or third attempt, then you will receive credit for the question. If you answer incorrectly on your third attempt, you will not receive credit for the question. What happens if I answer a true/false question incorrectly? The question will be marked as incorrect and you will not have an opportunity to try again. Can I take a make-up exam if I don't pass? Unfortunately, no. We do not allow make-up exams. If you miss a multiple choice question on the first attempt, you will need to answer correctly on the second or third attempt in order to receive credit. How is my final score calculated? The number of correct/credited answers will be divided by the total number of quiz questions, and the result will be your final score. Example: A course has 160 questions. You answered 15 of them incorrectly, which leaves 145 that you can receive credit for. Divide 145 by 160 and the result is 91%. Therefore, your overall quiz score is 91%.
