How long does it take?

This is a 10 hour course which includes three hours of self supported learning and seven hours of practical training time which is delivered over a minimum of two sessions.

This course is SCQF accredited at Level 5 with 1 credit point when you complete the question paper after the practical course.


What will I need?
