Handouts can be downloaded before you commence the training. Trainees haves access to videos (which can be watched in standard or high definition), key documents, websites and reports. Navigating through the course is easy and guidance is given along the way. With the premium packages you can also contact the trainer from within the browser, so you don’t have to leave the screen to get support. The information is up-to-date and is constantly reviewed and trainees have input into future development by starting threads or leaving specific comments in the forum.

You are given a week to two weeks to finish the training, depending on which course you take. You can stop and start as you wish within the given time frame. If you are on a two week package a reminder will be sent out after the first week if you haven’t begun. Most courses could take 3-6 hours to complete in one sitting. You will be tested on what you have learnt and you need 60% of the mark to pass. If successful you can immediately download a certificate.
