Ria's Colony School is the learning side of Ria's Colony. We teach the skills that help people grow a career or a business, in plain words and short lessons, and give a certificate to everyone who passes.
Why we started
A lot of the skills that move a career forward, like presenting yourself well, writing copy that sells or using AI at work, are taught in expensive programmes or not at all. Many people learn them slowly, by trial and error.
We put those skills into short courses anyone can take on a phone, for free. Each one is written to be practical: what to do, why it works and how to start using it this week.
The 14-day window and the final quiz are there on purpose. They keep you moving, and they make the certificate mean something.
What you get
Every course costs nothing. You only need an account with your name, email, country and phone number.
Lessons are a few short slides each, so you can learn on the bus, at lunch or before bed. Your place is saved.
Each course ends with a quiz that checks you understood it, not just clicked through. 75% passes.
Pass and your certificate gets its own page and code. Send the link to an employer or client and they can see it is real.
What you can learn
How a course works
Name, email, country and phone. We email you a code to sign in, so there's no password to remember.
Pick any course and start. You have 14 days to finish it.
Lessons open one after the other. Read the slides, then move to the next.
Score 75% or more and your certificate is ready straight away.
Need more time? Renew a course in the 7 days after your 14 days end and keep your progress.
Questions
Yes. Every course in the school is free, and there is nothing to pay later.
The course locks, and you have 7 days to renew it for another 14 days with your progress kept. If you don't renew in that time, the course resets and you start again from the first lesson.
You get 3 tries. If none of them pass, you go through the course again and then get 3 new tries. The questions change each time.
