2) Next please complete your diagnostic assessments. This identifies areas of strength and indicates areas in which you may need training and support.
3) Finally the system will guide you through the online modules and resources. These will help you to up skill and refresh your knowledge.
4) You will be given practice examinations using the awarding organisations platform and/or paper based resources.  and when you are ready and feel confident then we will book you in for the actual exam.
