Studying by correspondence allows you to work at your own pace in the environment of your choice. You have three months to complete each module or short course, but most people finish sooner. The more hours you study, the faster you can complete the course. The course fees include all the materials you need to complete the course including manuals, DVDs and assessments. We post these resources out to you. You also have free unlimited support by phone and email.
