Home Study Course
A correspondence course which you complete in modules. Each course has 4 modules. You can choose whether to send back each module when complete, or once the whole course is done. On receipt, it will be marked by one of our professional tutors and in-depth feedback provided so you know you are on the right track.
This course has just been re-written and includes brand new chapters on planning for pandemics, GDPR compliance and much more so there's never been a better time to study from home with us!
