How long does it take to get a TEFL certification?

How long it takes to complete your TEFL certification course depends on variables such as whether your course is self-paced, the number of hours of certification you choose, and the amount of time you have available to dedicate to the course each week.

In a self-paced online TEFL course (which most are) you can log in and work through the course independently, at your convenience. The more hours of certification you choose, the longer it will take to complete your course. For example, a Bridge Basic Certificate course of just 20 hours can be completed in a week or two, whereas the more comprehensive 120-hour Master Certificate Course usually takes students at least four weeks to complete in full. Students in Bridge’s self-paced online programs, such as these, are given up to three months to access their course, and many students finish their training well before the deadline.
