Training is more valuable when the knowledge makes sense beyond the assessment.
The little things are part of the experience.
A positive learning environment is built through conversation, respect, connection and the way people are treated while they are here.

Students get a chance to step away from training, talk with each other and have informal conversations with trainers.

After a practical week, lunch gives students and trainers time to sit down, unwind and recognise what has been achieved.
