Fall 2008 Session Begins
October 6, 2008

Students enrolled in the already-in-session Fall and Spring classes come from as far away homebases as Taiwan and Denmark. All gather online, networking, learning together in the one-year intensive perfumery course.

TESTIMONIALS

There is a real need for a distance learning course in natural perfumery. Here are some testimonials from current students:

"Finally I got a chance to learn from a professional perfumer without having to travel abroad. Before starting Anya’s class, I was already playing around with creating natural perfumes for about a year.

Now I see I was merely ‘playing around’… In the class we learn to get our scent memories in gear, we learn to evaluate the aromatics, we learn to build accords, and finally we are at making perfumes. I learned so much already!

The lectures are very nice to listen too and very informative, and the live classes, where you can talk with other students and Anya, ask your questions and work together, are one of the most fun aspects to me. Saskia Van Besauw, Aromatherapist, Belgium

"It really is impressive how much information is there for us and I'm really learning with our class." Susan Stype, Certified Aromatherapist, Arlys Naturals.

"The class site is fabulous and quite an amazing piece of work and accomplishment! I wish I had half your energy."

ONE-YEAR STUDY -- TWELVE MODULES

Class size is limited to 20 so that each student may receive individualized attention

Note: We will use only natural aromatics in the course, but the principles and practices will be applicable to all forms of perfumery.

ONLINE AND INTERACTIVE

+ Study and learn in a friendly, interactive forum. The powerful, database-driven website is built on the Moodle template, and is used worldwide for university-level teaching. It is an intuitive and interactive site, complete with chat rooms, study forums, links, and much more. The course will be conducted for one year, with different, progressive modules introduced each month.

Tuition is $1400 and includes:

+ A Natural Perfumery Primer, authored by the course teacher Anya McCoy, President of the Natural Perfumers Guild.

+ A standardized study kit of 25 natural aromatics and scent strips.

+ Twelve study modules online, one for each month of the year's enrollment. They will supplement and expand upon the Primer, and accompanying lectures will illustrate the fine points of the course elements. Extensive additional study materials include evaluation forms, individualized Q&A sessions with industry professionals and much more.

+ Students will be studying an intensive, hands-on, dynamic approach to natural perfumery. Thirty years experience in evaluation, blending, studio tips and techniques will be shared by Anya, and this will greatly add to the student's learning curve, cutting years of experimentation down to one year. This course is for the serious student who wishes to avoid costly mistakes, and who realizes that just studying books is not the way to learn perfumery. Guidance from a professional perfumer can save time, money, and polish your skills base for the next level of your career.

+ There will be a Yahoo group that will function as a "study group" where the students can communicate daily. Students can also enjoy guest lecturers, online access to the teacher, phone access to the teacher if a Q&A session is missed, and much more.
