We know both sides of the system and the complexities that come with it and are true believers in the power of knowledge. Our training reflects this wealth of knowledge and includes a lot of practical real-life scenarios to refer back to. The training will be delivered 1:1 online or face to face (in FNQ) and takes about 4 hours to complete.
