On the day of your course, Learners are requested to arrive at the course venue 30 minutes prior to the course. Upon arrival you will be welcomed by your course trainer and welcomed to the venue.

Arriving to the course 30 minutes early enables your Instructor to complete the relevant pre-course paperwork and complete the ID check ahead of the start of the course. This also allows you time to be settle prior to the course and allows the course to start promptly.

Clothing

We would ask that when you attend one of our courses that you please wear suitable clothing. Many of our face to face or blended learning courses are either practical based or have a practical element.

We would therefore ask that you wear clothing which you do not mind getting dirty or doing practical sessions in. We would politely ask that you please do not wear any clothing which can be ‘seen up, through or down’ such as leggings, short skirts, loose fitting tops etc as this may cause you or someone around you embarrassment. We would also ask that you wear suitable shoes such as trainers which have your toes covered and avoid heels or open toe footwear.

For some of our courses such as the First Responder, First Person on Scene or Outdoor First Aid courses for example we may undertake training scenarios outside. You will therefore need to ensure that you are wearing suitable clothing for outdoor activities and bring with you a waterproof coat and trousers.

Refreshments and Lunch

Throughout the course of the day we will provide you with refreshments such as Tea, Coffee, Hot Chocolate and biscuits.

There are also a number of shops within a short walk of our Water Orton and Knutsford venues or a short drive from our Tamworth venue for you to purchase food during your lunch break, however we would advise that you bring food with you.

At each of our venues there will be suitable facilities (Microwave) to warm any food up.

Reasonable Adjustments

Medline Consultancy Limited through working with our awarding organisations are committed to providing all learners with an equal opportunity to achieve qualifications through the provision of alternative assessment arrangements where necessary. We would ask that should you require any reasonable adjustments please contact our team to discuss at the earliest opportunity prior to attending your course.
