Having class once a month worked perfectly with my busy life and Chrysalis was just perfect for my needs. Both the my teacher and student support were very helpful and supportive on this journey.
I've waited until I finished my course to write this review - My experience at Chrysalis from start to finish has been great. The course was well structured and the support I was given through"Student Support" was brilliant ( A special mention to Tania who went over and above every-time I called ) - I will ( and have already ) recommend Chrysalis to anyone that enquires.
The South Student Support are truly amazing, I have had many personal health challenges since starting at Chrysalis and I have been given nothing but understanding, support, help and encouragement from all members. I would have had to give my course up if it wasn’t for their help. I cannot express how grateful I am for their service. Thank you 🙏🏻
Quick, helpful and informative responses to questions as always. Admin support is always really prompt and helpful, particularly when you are trying to get things clear in your mind
Katie dealt with my request quickly and efficiently and was very helpful and it was hassle free which was great. Highly recommend 😀
I have emailed South student support to allow me to resubmit my assessment task. It was done in no time. Excellent service. Very helpful.
Really pleased with Student support today. Helped me quickly and professionally. I’m really enjoying the course.
Everyone was really helpful, easy to talk to and quick to resolve the issue with which I needed help.
The kindest most patient helpful lady I've ever spoke to on a phone call.
The first part of this course has been great. Well run, easy access and any issues quickly resolved
Absolutely loved my journey with Chrysalis. Quite surprised at some of the negative comments made regarding their training when I first started, and therefore I have to say that has not been my experience in any way at all. Our tutor BH has been outstanding, and I have benefited immensely in the training both professionally and personally. I am also very grateful to the support received from the team at student support. Especially Tanya! Always a pleasure to speak to and so helpful with anything I have needed support with. Would highly recommend Chrysalis and am now able to take my skills forward so am very grateful ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Providing our own course printouts to attend university settings where we can’t use the facilities is ridiculous. The print outs are literally repeated word for word in class so could be home study led. There’s no practical assessments in our finals to prove our capabilities as students. For such an expensive course the student support is awful.
Our tutor mark is genuinely the best and a great ambassador for your company
There have been times where the information shared is not always accurate - for example, a recent email advised that the Readiness to Practice letters were to be requested by the provider of your placement but then when I emailed placements directly they issued the letter directly to me (after me telling the provider they needed to email and then being surprised by that as other students had provided them).
Interesting course but not quite structured enough, felt more depth of learning could have been achieved with better time management.
It is a course which is flexible. You are required to attend 1 ftf class per month with lots of self directed learning, essays etc to produce per month. Some of the tuors were better that others. There is good online class notes and videos.
I have not started my course yet at Chrysalis, but I called them to defer my studies because of a job opportunity and they were lovely and did it straight away. Thank you! :)
This has been a learning experience with so many personal benefits. I have enjoyed my journey to becoming a qualified Hypnotherapist and Counsellor.I have gained so much from the tutors, and the help from the support team has been excellent. My only comment would be that a city centre-based venue would be far more accessible. The first venue was a hotel near the river, which was a nightmare for parking. While Hope University is an accessible venue, meeting on a Sunday, there was an absence of hospitality and tea and coffee-making facilities. Further, the university was freezing in the winter months. But overall, I value the learning support and the online services.
Easy to access learning, 1 face to face group monthly so allows to sit in with full time work. Work rate well paced and as long as you’re keeping up with assignments I found it very manageable alongside full time work. Lots of additional reading required. Good tutor a d peer support which is essential to building confidence and skills
Great and efficient service from student support.
I’m still new to the course and have only had 1 lecture so far. Yet I’m receiving countless emails for classes I cannot do yet for another 3 years once I’ve qualified. It would be great if the algorithm noticed who was new so they could receive less of these emails.
