You will notice that some of the sessions cover the content for several units, you only need to do cover the content and do the tests once!

&: - If you are ready for a new text book to be sent to you, please email your trainer with your request.

Note: When you log into Learnkey – you will notice that there is far more content in the library than you need to use, remember this is a great resource that you have access to for 12 months.  So even after you have completed all of the units in the course, you can access additional information in the library.

On completion of each unit, you must submit your evidence portfolio to your trainer for marking.  The evidence portfolio is created by completion of the activities and self assessment questions and where appropriate the Learnkey tests.
