The Certificate programme, which starts in late September, is offered part-time over one year.
Lectures & tutorials are given in two 11 week semesters on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons (lectures 14.00-16.00, tutorial 16.00-17.00) and evening (tutorial 18.00-18.30, lecture 18.30-19.25, lecture 19.35-20.30, tutorial 20.30-21.00).
Certificate students are required to take four taught modules (one module typically comprises 22 hours of lectures and 11 hours of tutorial time) i.e. 2 of the 4 modules available each semester.
Certificate students may attend on any schedule - for example
- all teaching on Tuesday and Thursday evenings (suitable those in full-time employment)
- all teaching on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons (suitable those in unavailable on evenings)
- all teaching on Tuesdays (afternoon and evening) (suitable those who want to minimise travel)
