Note that the costs for this course are solely for the online workshop and examination sections of the qualification, candidates will have to organise the practical assessment element of the qualification themselves (although assistance will be given by the referee educator on how to do this)

A Zoom joining link will be emailed to you 24hrs before the published session time.
