We offer a crash course which lasts for a period of 40 hours spread over a maximum of 3 weeks and includes full training based on the four sections of the exam and a short easy assessment which is carried out by independent external examiners from the English Speaking Board (ESB) or from City & Guilds, who are both recognized and accepted by the Home Office.
