How is the programme taught?
The programme is taught via a combination of face-to-face tuition and distance learning, giving you the flexibility to fit your studies around your other commitments.
In line with our popular fast-track method, you complete the programme in two block weeks of training (9.30am - 4.30pm, Monday - Friday) separated by a three month period. In between the training weeks, you follow the learning materials on a self-study basis. We advise you do four to six hours per week. The programme typically takes six months to complete.
The training weeks include:
* tutor-led discussions
* tutor-led workshops
* case studies
* group exercises
* individual exercises
Four interactive workbooks written by BPP specifically for this programme and a BPP Student Handbook for use in the workshops are included in the fees.
