Students who do not have excellent numerical skills and a good understanding of the fundamental principles of maths and physics should be aware that these are rapid revision courses for exam preparation and it would be hard to achieve the required level without any self study well in advance. If you are concerned our training advisors can give you a self assessment exam in order to help you judge your readiness. We can also arrange private tuition.

Duration These 2 modules are run over 2 weeks with consecutive exams at the end of the second week. As these are considered to be academic qualifications the courses can be sat at any time and the certificates issued do not expire.

Assessment 2 hour written exam on the final day
