Live Tutor Webinars

Learners meet online with their course tutor in live webinars once a week throughout the ten weeks of the course. These are designed to support what has been learned during the e-learning sessions. The Tutor leads a discussion with a group of no more than 9 participants, giving the chance to share experiences and ask questions to reinforce your knowledge.
