Frequently Asked Questions

Can my training be recorded?2025-01-24T14:38:02+00:00

No. Due to GDPR and the confidentiality needs of individuals who attend, our trainers, and organisations, we do not record or allow recording of any part of our training courses. This applies to our public and corporate courses. Our Remote-Live courses are delivered using Wellingtone technology (MS Teams or Zooms), and record/ transcribe will be turned off by default.

How practical is the course? How much of it is theory based?2019-10-15T22:48:57+01:00

The course is supported by theoretical grounds to provide the widest view of the industry possible. However, there are practical exercises throughout the two days including simulation, group and individual work, and discussion to ensure we accommodate different learning styles.

How will I be assessed?2019-10-15T22:49:04+01:00

Distinction: over 80%
