A distance learning programme

The Distance Learning Programme - How it Works

Once you have purchased your Volume online through PayPal, you will be asked to register your name to create a password which will give you full access to the download page for the Volume you have purchased. Add the download page to your ‘favourites’ or ‘bookmarks’ in your browser so that you can return whenever you wish.

Each Volume comprises three modules, provided as a Workbook, the Audio Accompaniment and the Audio Transcript for you to download. The Workbook and Audio Transcripts are provided as a PDF, for which you will need a free copy of Adobe Acrobat Reader to open. The Audio Accompaniment for each module is approximately 20 minutes long and is provided in MP3 format. Please note that the audio files are substantial (typically 20MB) and will take significant time to download even on Broadband connections.

Start with the first module in the Volume you have purchased and expect to take about a month over each module. Feel free to contact me by e-mail, karenhands@thoughtintoaction.com, if you have any comments or queries along the way.

Please note that you will need to complete Volume 1 before progressing to Volume 2 as Volume 2 assumes familiarity with the Thought into Action SystemTM which you will gain from Volume 1.

To accompany the programme and to complement your learning, we are building up a range of materials in the Thought into Action Audio Library. You will have access to relevant recordings of conversations between Karen Hands and individuals who have developed specific skills or business niches which are relevant to the subjects covered in the programme. These conversations are intended to stretch your capability further and will not necessarily follow the methods given in the Workbook itself. Contact details are provided if you want to get in touch with the speakers directly. Again, the recordings are provided as audio files in MP3 format and as a transcript in PDF for you to download.
