    Blended delivery - both online course content and partial face to face requirements

Delivery

The course is delivered entirely online, including on-demand video, mentoring, and support.

There are two learning paths available to you:

1. Structured path

  • The most popular option is to follow the six-month structure. Each month you are given a deadline with a number of video lessons to complete. A monthly mentor-hosted webinar allows you to discuss coursework to date, ask questions and get feedback on your assignment.

2. Self-directed path

  • Alternatively, according to your personal time constraints, you can complete the course entirely at your own pace. As the course is delivered entirely online, it means that you’re free to complete it whenever you are free. You’ll still be able to take part in any of the webinars – either live or catching up through recordings. Once enrolled, you’ll have access to all of the course materials for twelve months.

Entry requirements

Students are admitted on a case-by-case basis after a consultation with one of our Education Advisors. Key factors we’ll discuss with you include:

1. Background

2. Commitment

  • You do need to be motivated and committed. We set a high bar. Studying for one of our professional qualifications requires a certain amount of time, energy and focus. Our team will be there to support you along every step of the way but success will come as a result of your own diligence.

3. English language
