Do Qibla courses award Ijaza?

wa 'alaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,

As far as I understand, there is a basic ijazah after you have studied the juz 'amma and memorised to pass it down, but obviously they emphasise that you go further and do more study, recite the whole Qur'an or memorise the whole Qur'an to a qualified teacher. Generally there courses do not have ijazah, but if you follow a curriculum like the foundations diploma you will get the diploma and a note that you can teach what you have learnt, but this is not an ijazah technically. To actually get an ijazah in any science you will have to complete the whole seekers curriculum/associates degree and then study a text formally with any teacher to get an ijazah inshaa Allah. The seekers takes about 2-5 years on average and in it you get a strong grasp of the 'Arabic language (by completing the miftah diploma) and you will also inshaa Allah study, fiqh, little amount of tafseer, etc

Note: They usually teach everything in English, even some of the Arabic texts ( what I mean is that some of them are translated and you study the translation of the text). Though, later on if you succeed inshaa Allah you can go and study texts for ijazah inshaa Allah and I am quite sure they will have to be in 'Arabic and by that time inshaa Allah you will be confident.

I am just deducing from my own experience with them, I maybe wrong, may Allah forgive me if I am.
