Acceptance on a course is subject to a pre-course selection application form and interview. Applicants must be over 18 years old.
Training will generally take place from Monday to Friday from 09:00 – 17:00. Weekends are generally free. We believe, as you should, that the brain and body can only take so much. Reflection and recuperation time is much needed. However, there may be some extra training available over some of the weekends which will incur a small additional cost for fuel, food and accommodation. Take a look at the summer or winter courses on this website for more detailed information about the content, cost and enrolment.
