Training at a DistanceWe believe in contact training but some students cannot get to classes so we have developed a distance solution:

• Students must stay in tutor-contact whilst learning.

• A tutor must maintain close relationships to students.

• The e-solution provided on the web-site must be used to allow the student to get the benefit of the extra material

(All students may make use of the e-learning material on the DVD)

Note: Since there are many Tuition Centres using our material, we prefer that you do not try to enroll far-away students.
