I am not a fan of the courses complexities and it belief in itself it can deliver all that is needed in what is an artistic and subjective field in itself. 50 hours for novel writing may even be too much in my mind - you need only learn structures and styles while developing you uniques skills. Delivering a novel as some kind of completeness to the course is not really a viable outcome - said novel, despite extra care by the student, will always be barely a readable draft just fit enough for serious editing. Editing focuses and the main imperative here... I will not agree that there needs to be some kind of professional development in place. Every writer is an amateur until widely published - you can get a cert or diploma in that
