What our students say:
“Teaching & support, including opportunities for shadowing have been outstanding. Facilities are excellent”
“I've studied at various universities and tutored on post grad courses over the last 20 years. This has to be one of the best, if not the best course I have done during that time. It is absolutely spot on and the tutors have been amazing in terms of knowledge and delivery. Nothing has been too much trouble for them”
