Cert is included by default at every tier — no upsell. The Tier 2 School License costs A$1,290/yr and pays for itself on a single production by helping you cut a contractor's quote by A$30,000–$50,000 (see Module 1's worked example).
Pricing locked 2026-05-15. Cert is included at every tier by default — no no-cert/with-cert split. The 30–50× ROI argument (vs a single production quote cut) lives in Module 1's worked example.
Self-paced. Total content for Tier 1A is roughly 12-15 hours of video + quizzes + hands-on exercises. Most teachers complete one module per week over a school term (6 weeks for Tier 1A, 4 more for Tier 1B).
PDF certificate with completion date, your name, and PD hours documented. Counts toward teacher-registration CPD requirements in most AU states (specifics vary by jurisdiction — your school admin can confirm). Comes with a one-page summary PDF you can attach to your CPD record.

Yes. 5 of 6 modules' video content is recorded (Stage Management · Lighting Basic · Lighting Design · Sound Basic · Sound Design — 57 lessons / ~17 hours). Modules 4-6 (Risk · Scheduling · Capstone) are in production now and ride on top of EasyOrchestra, EasyScheduler, and EasyRisk (in build).
That's coming in Tier 2 (School Curriculum License). The same content gets restructured for student delivery in class, with kid-facing animations and interactive widgets. Teacher buys Tier 1A or 1B → understands the material → delivers it in class using the curriculum pack. Tier 2 ships once Tier 1 has its first cohort.
