Bespoke
You can choose from one of the courses below. If you start on a ‘lower level’ course, you can upgrade to the next course up by just paying the difference. All the modules are the same, no matter which course you choose.
If you are interested, but feel the courses are not quite right for you, it is possible that we can design a bespoke one for you. This would normally be for organisations and businesses, but speak to us if you are an individual.
