How is the course structured?

Disclaimer

You must have completed either the Beginner or Preparatory course prior to enrolling on the Advanced course. Additionally, you may only move on to subsequent modules once previous modules are complete (e.g. Module 1 > Module 2 > Module 3).

Students are prohibited from practising professionally until they’ve gained the diploma and signed the school’s Code of Practice.

Note: This does not apply if you already hold a diploma-level qualification from another school.
