Online with optional face-to-face introductory session

These are identical to the corresponding web-based courses, except that they have a 2 hour face-to-face session at the beginning of the course. The introductory face-to-face session always involves a 'hands-on' component to help participants engage with web-based elements of the course. In addition it allows participants to meet the facilitator and start to get to know the other members of their course cohort.
