In most courses you will be watching and listening to recorded lessons and tutorials and where applicable, following along with a course workbook that you can download from your training account. Lessons are interactive and have exercises to complete for consolidation as well as working towards taking an end of course assessment. Successful completion of the assessment will mean that you achieve your Pitman Training certificate from us and we will also apply for your accredited CPD (Continual Professional Development) certificate too.
