THEORETICAL - Very comprehensive. Sections are sent to students a few sections at a time. Each Section contains an assignment based on the information contained in the Section. There are also several Quizes which are undertaken every few sections. This allows us to keep in touch with students and give them the personal attention they deserve. 
​
No additional reading material is required as all contained in the course - however, we do supply links for students to read further, so they wish too. We are available to students Monday to Friday and welcome their interaction and any questions or querries. ​
