Pre-Learning and Exam Preparation

The course trainer will cover the course syllabus and talk about each topic, but there is still a proportion of self-study involved with Qualifications that delegates need to undertake in order to learn all of the information required for the exams.

Give yourself plenty of time for studying the pre-learning material listed below and enrol onto the course well in advance. The exams will not simply be a case of using common sense to answer the questions; they require detailed answers to specific questions which is why revision and exam technique is so important.
