FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Does each module have to be sequential? How about pre-requisites?
Individual modules are non-sequential, non-pre-requisite. A module/course has 32 total contact hours, spread over 4 Saturdays with 8 hours per session.
How are the classes held? What modality are you using?
Right now, our default modality will be online through the use of BigSky, Benilde's Learning Management System (LMS). Learning sessions are a combination of synchronous and asynchronous.

To qualify for the program, a prospective participant must be at least 18 years old, and must have completed a secondary education (High School) or its equivalent. If the participant is still in high school, certificate/diploma will be put on-hold until they can provide their high school diploma.

I noticed that most of your classes are only 4 days long. Is that enough time to learn anything useful?
Our programs are designed for professionals who are looking for fast, compact but comprehensive learning. 4 Saturdays is but for one module alone, each module is progressive, meaning it advances as it progress to succeeding modules. One diploma usually has 4-5 modules, which is equivalent to 4-5 months. As a professional, these small months are enough for them to learn something in a short amount of time during the usual 6 months probationary period.
What is the medium of instruction?
Lessons are generally taught in English though at times we have participants from other countries.
Books, videos, online classes and the like are cheaper. Why should I invest in instructor-led training?
Books, videos, online classes only offers one-way communication. SPaCE's instructor-led courses gives you immediate and practical real scenarios from industry practitioners of the field.
Do you offer on-site training?
Yes. However, training would be more effective when held away from the distractions of the workplace. When you attend classes in our school, you and your colleagues can focus on your training in a complete, distraction-free environment.
Do you have a maximum residency policy?
None. Being a hop-on-hop-off modular type program, this allows you to customize training and tailor your development in accordance to your availability and resources.
