Study Material
Study Material
Online assignments: Our assignments and practice exams are skills based, allowing you to put into practice what you have learned in theory. They cover the course topics extensively to ensure that students are fully prepared for the final exam.
Each assignment will cover just a few chapter of your study book. We will tell you which chapters of which book you will need to complete for each assignment. You can choose the speed at which you want to complete and we will prepare a timetable to suit. This will keep you on track and help you achieve your goal.
Online interactive videos (coming soon): E-learning videos allow tutors to cover key topics visually. It provides invaluable reinforcement of the subjects covered in the course and helps students by seeing the material as well as reading about it. Students can access the videos anytime from anywhere through the internet instead of relying on DVDs or flash drives, with easy access using mobiles, tablets and laptops.
Our videos are interactive with integrated tests to ensure you have absorbed the knowledge effectively. You will benefit from the ability to pause and rewind and gives you the advantage of studying at your own pace; something a classroom course cannot offer.
Online live interactive lessons (coming soon): With the combination of visual and audio, the tutor can mimic the one-to-one experience of the classroom and deliver clear, concise instructions but still have the flexibility of distance learning. You can ask questions throughout and are tested to ensure you have absorbed the knowledge correctly and fully. Our live lessons run weekly on a range of topics but if you cannot attend, they are recorded and stored in MyPTA so you can access them at anytime and as often as you like.
