Yes, you would need to take the full duration of course.

If you are taking VRNVR, it would be 4 days (Tuesday 2nd - Friday 5th), for all other subjects it is 5 days.

We advise taking the full course (all subjects) in order to maximise the benefits of the short 5-day course, especially as the subjects complement and support one another. However, we understand that this is not possible for everybody, so we do allow each student to select the subjects they wish to take in order to tailor the learning to their individual requirements.

Please note that priority will be given to those who book the full course (all subjects).

Please complete your booking form with your desired subjects.

To reserve a spot on the course, you will need to make a minimum of £100 deposit payment. Once full payment is processed on our end, a member of our team will review your booking and despatch a 'Booking Confirmation' email as confirmation of your space on the course.
