  • ✅  Guided self-study with our course manuals
  • ✅  Practical observation and hands-on training
  • ✅  A short written assessment

You will complete your guided home study before the practical training day(s).

On the practical training day(s), your tutor will assess your progress with verbal questions and by observing you as you perform a treatment.

Your written assessment is completed after the training day and submitted to your tutor within 2 weeks, except for some longer courses, where it is completed on the last training day.

If you’re choosing a refresher course, it will be assessed via observation of a treatment with minimal guidance from your tutor.

All our courses include a theory component that you complete at your own pace. This is delivered as self-guided learning materials, which include:

📖  2 course manuals and additional information

You will be able to download these and start to prepare for your training as soon as you purchase your course.

🎧  Video demonstrations and supporting resources are available for many courses, as well as audio versions of our manuals.

You should read and study all the materials thoroughly, ensuring you understand the concepts before moving on to practical training. Your tutor will want to confirm your understanding of the manuals.

The theory component can all be completed at home, allowing you to fit your study around work, family, or other commitments. Once you have completed the theory, you will be ready to attend the practical sessions, where you will apply what you have learned under the guidance of your qualified tutor.
