Answers to our primary certifications most frequently asked questions, regarding licensing

The minimum number of students to run a course is six (6) and a maximum of 20. We like to have a 10 to 1 student to teacher ratio when teaching the practical, so we can keep the classes small for quality learning. The courses are 6 hours a week. They are broken up into 3 hours of class time lecture and 3 hours of practical lab. Whether you split them up each week or place it on a Saturday or Sunday as a whole, it makes a great learning experience over the 6 weeks.
