Frequently Asked Questions About Our Training Information BASED in Northampton

We aim to keep our prices as competitive as possible to make gaining an accredited qualification as accessible as possible. We also have the benefit of operating online which ensures the prices of our courses benefit you.

You have access to your own student section 24/7 where you can work on assignments, upload videos, access course material, contact your tutor directly and receive instant feedback on your own. We use Turnitin to improve academic writing and provide full guidance on how to avoid plagiarism and the use of AI within your assignment to upload integrity.
