Yes, because we use the "Freemium" marketing method. Like Google and many companies these days, we deliver great value for FREE and a small % of people decide to learn more about our premium, paid courses.

As a training company naturally we have other programs available, however it’s up to you if you’d like to consider any of them. During the course we spend just 15 minutes a few times on the day explaining other courses, the rest of the 8 hours is jam-packed with practical steps you can use right away.

The hours are long because we want to provide you with as much value as possible. You can attend the first part of the course and leave later if you like. But chances are, you will feel inspired to stay for the whole thing

Also, we understand some people have other commitments and can't make the entire event. If you need to arrive late, that's ok. A friendly crew person will be outside the room to register you for the entire event.

A complete agenda is given after you enrol on our complete "Event Details" page.
It includes 3 breaks throughout the day and topics we cover such as:

• • The Values Track
  • Defining Your Purpose
  • ImaginAction (Process)
  • Your Financial Freedom Formula
  • Releasing Roadblocks To Your Success (Process)
  • “ROAR” - Results Oriented Action Replacements
  • From Procrastination To Productivity
  • and much more!

No, definitely not. The only speaker will be Benjamin J Harvey (not a line up of people selling different products. We hate those events too)

No, you won't have to dance, hug people or hold hands! You also won't have to share your life story with strangers or be subjected to any type of swearing from the speaker.

It is an inspirational, high energy event in safe and supportive community :)

No, we are not affiliated with any of these things and there is no hidden agenda. We are an education based organisation and we only provide courses to empower yourselves and others.

(Note: This is not boring theory you have heard before or one big sales pitch. You will get massive value and gain valuable skills & knowledge throughout the day)

We have run the event over 48 times with over 7,000 people. Authentic Education was established in 2009 with 5 star reviews on Facebook and Google. The co-founders Benjamin J Harvey and Cham Tang have been featured in media such as the Today Show, Sydney Morning Herald, Huffington Post, SBS Insight, BRW Magazine, ABC Radio, News.com.au, The Age and Courier Mail.

Yes, over half of the people attend by themselves. There are several opportunities to network throughout the day so you can meet new people if you like.

Benjamin J Harvey is an educator, speaker and Australia's only 2 * BRW award winning coach. He co-founded Authentic Education in 2009 with his business partner, Cham Tang. They are passionate about providing courses to empower people to do what they love.

Authentic Education has been featured in media such as the Today Show, Sydney Morning Herald, Huffington Post, SBS Insight, BRW Magazine, ABC Radio, News.com.au, The Age and Courier Mail.

We've had 70 year old "retirees" come to our events. The older you are, the more life experience you will have. The youngest person allowed is 12 due to the nature of the content.

The content is based on our research team's combined decades of experience of what does and doesn't work from studying and applying dozen of modalities, conducting over 10,000 hours of 1-on-1 coaching sessions, and training thousands of people across Australia and New Zealand.

It's also based on hard facts gathered from the field of neuroscience. In short, the event is based on strategies that get results coupled with pure science.

Government and educational bodies don't classify personal development courses. However, if you're looking for credibility:

• • Benjamin J Harvey has been featured on News.com.au and The Today show twice speaking about the education system.
  • Huffington Post said Authentic Education is "Australia's leading personal development training company helping people do what they love"
  • Co-founder, Cham Tang, has been invited to speak at high schools, Macquarie Bank, Commsec and ABC radio about education.
  
  

Because many years we were given the opportunity to do something different with our lives (besides working 50 hours a week in the rat race). We love personal development and we're fortunate enough to do what we love. We want to pay this forward and give you this opportunity to possibly change the course of your life too. Also, we don't like seeing people not realizing their potential because of either:

• a) A lack of knowledge. We want to fill in these knowledge gaps for you.
• 
  
• b) They believe things to be true that are quite simply false. We want to explain the truth about what your life can be like and how to create it.

Everyone's situation varies, but most people feel more clear and inspired within the first hour of the event. Other people see more tangible results starting at lunch time when they begin making new decisions and taking new action. See a couple of the 340+ reviews on this page. Most of them were written during or right after the event.
