What to expect
Workshops, employer links and recognised outcomes can matter as much as the course title.
A good place to start
Check the qualification's relevance to your intended work and verify recognition. Ask about practical hours, equipment, placements, assessment and progression.
What to compare
- Recognised outcome
- Practical training
- Placement and progression
Picture your first month
Ask what you will practise, how feedback works and what materials you need. A taster can help you assess the teaching style. If you need a recognised qualification, check its status with the responsible institution before committing.
