All courses are carried out at our offices in Park Royal, unless specifically arranged otherwise and run from 10am until 5pm. There is normally a maximum of 6 people per course, and places are booked on a first come, first served basis, so book as far in advance as you are able! Lunch is provided at around 1:30pm, and there will be tea and coffee available throughout the day. The course is tailored to the trainees on the day, and will be taken at your own pace, but follow the basic structure outlined below. It’s very hands-on, the only things you need to bring will be yourselves and maybe a note book, everything else is provided.
