Before you enrol, we will make sure you are directed to the right level of course for you through an English assessment/interview. You should be able to state which skills you wish to improve, have clear goals you wish to achieve and be able to work independently.

If English is not your first language, you may need to complete ESOL qualifications before progressing onto these qualifications.
