What is the Premium Course?
The Premium Course includes the same series of streamed video lectures and practical exercises as the regular online course, but also includes a series of 4 assignments, which are submitted by participants for individualized feedback. Assignments are submitted to info@legislativedrafting.co, and feedback will normally be provided within 48 hours. The assignments can be done at any time, but there are recommended lectures to be viewed before completing each assignment.
Participants in the Premium Course receive a certificate of completion once all 4 assignments have been submitted.
