Start Dates and Training Times

Start dates for our courses

• The College is open all year apart from a week at the end of May, a week in August and the period between Christmas and the New Year.
• There are no specific start dates for any of our courses. We have trainees starting every two weeks.
• Some of our courses have places available for an almost immediate start, although it does take a few weeks for the application to be processed.
• Other courses are full and have a waiting list. This does vary, but you will be kept advised of approximately how long you will have to wait. If you are able to start at short notice, a place may become available sooner than you think!

Length of courses/training times

• The length of the training course will depend on individual abilities and needs.
• Training starts at 8.15am and finishes at 4.45 pm, Monday to Thursday
• Training starts at 8.15am and finishes at 12 noon on Friday.

The College closes every other weekend, and your fares will be paid, at the cheapest rate, to travel home. After a “closed weekend” there is a later start on the Monday.
