WORM FARMING COURSE
I’M glad i did not pay £349 for this course because its not worth £349.
The grammar was as though it was written by someone with English as a second language.
The course tried to give a very basic introduction to worm farming / vermicomposting but it was repetitive and lacking in detail (ie. chicken manure is very dry and can give off ammonia, it can not easily added to a worm farm)
The exams did not always relate to the course material.
Questions were ambiguous. one question was “worms eat on average” the answer being half there body weight each day.
another question was “worms eat there body weight in food each day” the answer being yes.
It cant be both.
For £22 it was OK but could do with a peer review to improve accuracy and presentation.
Worm Farming Course
I really enjoyed and learned a great deal doing this course. I was really impressed with the in depth detail, which will help me in my worm farm project. I was also really impressed with the tutors, who responded to every question i asked, very promptly and politely. I would recommend this academy highly and will definately be doing more courses in the future.
