This course is delivered onsite every week on Mondays, giving learners the chance to study in a structured classroom environment with consistent and immediate hands-on tutor guidance. These frequent face-to-face sessions provide crucial opportunities for deep discussion, rapid feedback on practical activities, and regular peer collaboration. Between sessions, learners can reinforce their weekly learning and prepare for the next class independently using our comprehensive online resources, ensuring continuous momentum and high levels of engagement throughout the course.

Work-based training with employer on site.
