Upgrade your studies with our Intensive Live Sessions

Each course you take offers monthly live sessions with your tutor and fellow students. As a rule, the sessions are 120 minutes long (though variations are possible depending on course contents), and cover all the course materials. It’s a great chance for you to check your progress, ask any questions, and meet other students from your programme.
To make sure the sessions fit your schedule, no matter what, they’ll always be recorded – so you can access them whenever you want, even if you’re not able to attend.
Each monthly session covers the same material, so you only need to watch or attend it once. But you can of course do it more often: the choice is all yours.
