The format of the course is listed on our enrol page, if you would prefer another format, then please contact us. We may be able to arrange multiple sessions. Our courses are detailed and thorough. Some small components of the course are to be completed outside of class time as students need to be able to demonstrate their ability to locate various resources autonomously to correctly satisfy the nationally recognised competency requirements of the course.

Please note:  The Face-to-Face classes are not the only component of the course and there is some assessment (and further guidance from your trainer) that follows after the days.

General Questions on our Face to Face Courses

Q. Do I have to complete the course by the last day?
A. No, students are required to use the Classroom for practical, discussion and group activities. There are other assignments that are to be done outside the class and within 3 months from the course finishing (can easily be extended on request). Everybody learns at different paces, and we therefore do not enforce completion by the last day. After successful completion of all assignments, a Statement of Attainment will be issued.

Q. Is there any celebration at the completion of the course?
A. Yes, at the end of the course, students are offered a celebratory drink and snacks, and quite often a reunion or dinner is organised.

Q. In WA and SA, the course is run over 2 days and the price is slightly lower, why is this?
A. It is the same course as the other states however there is slightly more homework given. We surveyed a selection of WA and SA customers and asked them if they would prefer slightly lower fees/days but with slightly higher homework requirements and the answer was 'Yes'. Our Face to Face classes remain the same with our Best Price Guarantee in each other state.

Days Hours
See the relevant timetable below.
We can also offer our courses as distance learning for the theoretical, and some classroom to cover the practical elements. This is ideal for people who would like to do the course mostly in their own time, but who may not have access to a video camera or simulated environment. Please contact us for details of this option. These sessions are also available for current distance students who wish to expedite their training or get personal assistance from our trainer.

To enrol in any of our courses, please visit the enrol page or call us on 1800 079 801. Below is a timetable of the upcoming courses, locations and dates.
