 The combined course is two components. It is the 120-hour online course plus seven or ten days teaching practice at one of the available training centres. The training centres where the teaching practice portion is available are detailed on the combined course section of the website. The online course can be studied in the trainee's own time and at their own pace. And then for the sake of continuity we recommend that they begin a teaching practice component within six months of completing the online course. The certification gained is exactly the same as the one received after the four-week-in-class course. So it's the full certification that's recognised by employers and it will maximise job prospects. Accomodation is optional but it is provided at all training centres for the teaching practice if required.
