FAQ

What is the format of the program?

The programmes are entirely distance learning. Parts are practical e-learning courses that you can complete when you have time and at your own pace which you can also learn from your mobile phone (our app).

There are also online classroom sessions via our advanced professional distance learning system. We have a range of time slots to choose from and we always record the sessions so you can listen to them if you miss anything or want to review information. Watching class recordings also equal to attendance. There is always someone on hand to help and support you if you have any questions about the skills you are learning.

When can I take the live online courses?

The timing of each course varies for different groups. You will be given access to a dashboard with several different time slots for the same session/topic. You decide which date and time works best for you. Some are scheduled for weekday afternoons, while others are scheduled for weekend mornings or evenings. Scheduling is based on factors such as the number of interested participants and the availability of trainers. If you miss a session, you can always watch recordings of that session.
