The Candle Academy now provides comprehensive online courses for home study worldwide - taught through Live Skype Seminars or via pre-recorded HD Video Courses combined with PDF files, email correspondence and consultation. For students living too far to attend The Candle Academy in person, this is the next best thing. 

The intensive online candle making courses aim to equip you with the technical, creative, and commercial skills you need to make a business profit and establish a rewarding livelihood from this special profession.

Gary also teaches face-to-face candle making courses year-round at his residential candle making school and home in Jamaica.

Home Study Candle Making Courses:
For Complete Beginners to Advanced students.

The art of candle making is similar to being a chef in a kitchen - It’s all about timing, temperatures and formulas. Highly guarded candle making formulas can take years to create, yet can be taught in minutes. Once the student knows these guarded techniques, his/her own creativity emerges and blossoms.

Candle Making Seminars via Skype:

How Skype Seminars Work:
You need to have a good Skype connection in your home work area or studio, and you will see Gary based in his studio in Jamaica. This way, you interact through each step of your journey in becoming a candle designer or skilled candle making hobbyist, just as if you were learning alongside Gary in person in Jamaica.

You will need to purchase all basic candle making equipment yourself at home. A list of the materials and tools needed is supplied, and you can source these in your home country or with the contacts that your teacher Gary provides. The materials and tools can cost around 350 USD (approx. 380 / 390 U.S. dollars).
