Why are the certified courses so much shorter than at colleges of further education?
One-to-one, intensive and fast-track training in small groups of students, who really want to learn, speeds things up considerably for both the tutor and the students themselves. Although we cover the essential theory for the vital underpinning knowledge of safety, hygiene and ethical practice, most of the training is practical. In a larger, further education class setting, there is just one tutor supervising, assessing and giving practical help and guidance for anywhere up to 30 students at one time. This is obviously something that Tranquility purposely avoids, thus giving us time to tutor on an almost individual basis. This also allows time for more practical work, so home-study is a vital necessity to fulfil the theory content and understanding of your course. At home you are expected to undertake instructed study by reading your manual which covers everything you need to know to successfully complete your course or workshop, which you would otherwise do during your college time.
