# How much time does a course take each week?

As much or as little as suits you. Our courses are self-paced: the teaching is recorded, released over several weeks, and stays available to you for as long as you have an account with us, so you can work through it in your own time.

## How are the courses paced?

Course modules are released over a period of weeks; the First-Steps course, for example, runs over six weeks. But you do not have to keep up week by week. Every recording stays available, so you can go at your own pace and take as long as you want.

## How much time should I set aside?

Enough to watch the teaching and to practise. Some of the recorded teaching sessions are long, and the journeys and other practices take time too.

## What if life gets in the way?

That is fine. You can pause and come back to the course whenever you like, and you can usually repeat a course for free when it runs again. See [Can I repeat a course I have already done?](/wiki/can-i-repeat-a-course-i-have-already-done/)
