Mode of delivery

We understand the staffing pressures in schools/colleges so in discussion with you we can offer a more flexible mode of delivery. We can structure course delivery formats to have a mixture of video watching, self-study assignments and Teams tutorials or to be delivered in-person at your setting.

Preparation and delivery time of an EP training course will be negotiated with the school/college. As a guide, EP preparation time for delivering training as a day course will be at least half a day. For a twilight session or shorter training courses the preparation time will be at least 50% of the delivery time and this will vary according to the training topic and how bespoke it is to the setting.
