“The programme was great in helping to answer different types of questions. The tutors were also great and answered questions promptly.”

“I really liked the constant support I received knowing that if I sent a question, I’d have it answered within a day.”

"I liked how the programme was able to cover all areas of the syllabus and how the questions became more challenging through the course"

The Calculations One-Week Intensive course is a structured programme with daily activities that you will be guided through over a seven-day period.

So that we can provide dedicated support to our trainees, the numbers for each course are strictly limited.

If you can commit to an intensive week of calculations that will help you get to grips with your weaker areas and get a heap of practice questions, reserve your space early to avoid disappointment.
