The six week courses run on a purely practical basis covering all practical elements of the
units. Knowledge information is gained from a work pack (supplied on registration of course)
correspondence via internet and telephone conversations with instructors. THIS IS TO BE
ACHIEVED IN YOUR OWN TIME. When this knowledge information is returned to the
centre the assessment can be completed and signed off. We then apply to City & Guilds/CITB
to register you for your knowledge test (set externally).
