How to Enrol

To make the enrolment process as easy as possible for you, we have a variety of methods for you to get enrolled onto the course of your choosing. Read and select your most suitable option below.

Ways to Enrol

Online

You can now enrol and book your PCI assessment directly from our website. To get started, simply find your chosen course. Once located, you will see one of three options based on the course’s enrolment criteria:

  • Enrol Now: This option allows you to enrol immediately and make any necessary payments.
  • Assessment Needed: If a PCI assessment is required to confirm your suitability, you can view available dates and book one that works for you.
  • How to Enrol: For courses that depend on demand, you need to contact us to express your interest. Should enough interest be gained, you will be contacted only when a course is set up.

To navigate the enrolment steps smoothly, you must create an online account. This account helps you manage your enrolments, book PCI assessments, and upload your identification documents.

Each course has a set maximum capacity. If your chosen course becomes oversubscribed, we will add your name to a waiting list. When new dates and times are arranged, a Centre Support Advisor will reach out to assist with your enrolment.

Although we strive to meet your scheduling needs, we reserve the right to cancel or reschedule courses or close enrolment as necessary. For more details, please review our full Terms & Conditions.

Sometimes, the course you are interested in may no longer have available dates. If this happens, you can call us to join a waiting list. As soon as future dates are confirmed, priority contact will be given to you, ensuring you have the first opportunity to enrol.

Courses with a PCI symbol

What is PCI?

PCI is a pre-course interview with one of our teachers. This may include a task to ensure the course is suited to you. You will also be given support from our teachers to help you make the right decision. The pre-course interview may be carried out in-person or online, through Microsoft Teams and must be completed before your enrolment is finalised and confirmed. Payment will not be taken until the PCI is completed and you are placed on the correct course level.

Enrolment and Fee Information

For all courses you will need:

A. Payment (Cash, Credit/Debit Card)

Payments can be made at our Bower Park or Brittons Centres or over the phone.

B. Evidence of ID
