About this course

  • Course Level

    This course is a USA Taekwondo Degree Level course. There will be five levels initially, of which this is level three. If you complete and pass the course you will receive a framed diploma and exclusive apparel relevant to your level. As you pass each specific section within the degree curriculum you will be able to download a certificate related to that topic.

  • Course Duration

    There are 20 weeks of content in this course, broken up into hundreds of individual sections (exact number tbc). New lessons are released every seven days from sign up until you have completed the entire curriculum. You can take the course at your own pace, if it takes you longer than 20 weeks that's fine. Don't rush through it, take time to practise each lesson.

  • Course Assessment

    As you progress you will need to pass a quiz about what you just learned in each video. Once you have completed all the lessons and quizzes you will take a final exam made up of a written section and a practical exam, where you will submit a video demonstrating what you have learned, which will be graded by University coaches. This final examination determines whether you pass or fail. One free retake is available.
