Our Whole Person Learning Model understands that you are unique and human and not a 'widget' in some training, factory-like, production line.
Few of us learn everything when it's delivered on a monotonous, boring, lecture-like standard way.
We understand that learning is more effective, interesting and fun if it draws on a variety of different modes; Visual, Auditory, Reading/Writing, and Kinesthetic.
This is why in every session, you'll get to talk, listen, role-play, watch, ask questions, solve and read. This means that you'll learn in ways that best suit you because the material is engaging and accessible.
Yes, we will!
To achieve this qualification, you must have completed at least 120 hours of work as detailed in the Assessment Requirements of the units of competency.
