• Participants work at their own pace using a workbook containing notes and exercises.

However, the length of time taken will vary according to previous experience, so the facilities will remain available for informal use for a further week after the formal sessions; alternatively the course files can be copied to a CD or memory stick (not supplied) so that the exercises can be completed on other machines.
