What will I be able to do after the course?
Across our course range we train in excess of a
thousand individuals each year and everyone asks the same question.
The answer really is quite simple and it all depends upon your personal
ability. We have a percentage of students that complete their course with
natural ability and can virtually walk away and take on decent projects
straight away. The majority of students leave us confident and with plenty
of practice could make a successful go of it!
When does the course run?
Course begin every Monday including bank holidays. They start between 9 &
9:30am and finishes when you complete your final objective of the day,
usually around 4pm!
Do I need to do the whole course in one go?
No. Our scheduling system means that all 2 and 4 week courses can be
arranged to suit you. So if you want to take week 1 next week and week 2 a
month or so later you can! We'll give you 12 months to complete the whole
program.
