I just wanted to find out the cost of doing a course via email. I didn't want and nor did I answer any phone calls. I still have no idea of the cost of the course I requested info of. I want to do a course and if I can find the price and do not have to speak on the phone then I still may do a course.

Love the course but am finding it difficult to understand. I need to do a lot of googling to understand terms and look for scientific photos of the plants.

Hi Natasha,

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review and we’re sorry to hear you feel that way.

Price is not displayed on all of our courses because in many cases the cost is dependant on a number of factors. In these situations, it’s best to get that information from a course adviser to ensure accuracy.

If you’d like to discuss anything further or receive additional clarification, please email reviews@shortcourses.com.au.

Feeling harassed

I just wanted some information on potential courses but I had to give out my number and email address to even look at anything.
I then proceeded to get hounded about signing up and starting courses by email, text message and phone calls.
