We offer short intensive training with a flexible learning programme that is accessible throughout the year allowing students the opportunity to study at their own pace. The courses are more suited to the mature, motivated learner wishing to develop an exciting career in this ever expanding Industry.
Our focus is to provide a personal approach to learning in a relaxed and friendly environment, therefore emphasis is placed on providing excellent training within small tutor groups, 4 students being the maximum.
Elite Tutors are highly qualified, experienced and will offer friendly and supportive advice that will ensure learners have a successful outcome.

You will be required to return to the Academy for a practical assessment and a small multiple choice test to prove your competence before certification, depending on the course you are taking. The student determines the time that this takes however please note there is a two year period for completion.
