Hibernia Course and pregnancy

    Hi,

    I am actually writing on behalf a friend. She want to do the online hibernia course for primary school teaching.

    While there is some info online about the course, there are aspects not available - for instance their policies on certain things - so I said I would ask the good people on boards.ie.

    She is wondering in what kind of cases would they insist on her deferring the course. If she found herself pregnant, would they make her defer or would she lose all the money she paid for the course. Also in terms of family illness etc, would they allow her to be flexible in the timetable of the course. I guess it is a lot of money and in her case she is coming to the course later than someone in their 20s who may not have same commitments as someone in late 30s.

    She has always wanted to become a primary school teacher but life and finances have dictated that this opportunity came later in her life.

    She is committed to doing the course but was wondering if people faced issues like pregnancy or family illness while doing the course and how did the college react? The course appears attractive as it allows you to cater for a normal working life with family but is this really the case?

    I know your first reaction might be to say to defer the course till she has finished her family but she has one son and it took ages (years) for her to get pregnant the first time so she wants to keep trying. As it is not easy and straight forward for her to build her family she wants to continue to build her career at the same time. Has anyone found themselves pregnant while doing the course and what happened.

    Sorry for the ramble and hope someone can help..

    Thanks for any feedback...

    Yeah, no probs.

    If you hit the report button on your own post it will alert a moderator and you can ask them to move it to the relevant forum.

    If you're on your phone, it should just say 'Report'. If you're on a computer, it looks like a Danger road sign.
