  About Our Courses    
       
 

Our courses are based heavily on practical exercises, which when combined with the recording, reporting and answering of quizzes, results in the understanding of a specific syllabus segment. Up front lecturing is reduced to a minimum and the emphasis is on training to the precise, specific needs of the individual. Exercises are regularly backed up by the tutor, and all teaching is backed up by texts, standards, videos and computer based learning where possible.

Training is currently available at our Head Office in Penistone, Sheffield (UK) and Volos, Greece. We also provide training onsite, usually where a number of employees require training and examination at the same time, also providing an opportunity to better suit a course to a company's individual needs. Onsite training has taken place in many locations both in the UK and internationally.
