Course Overviews
Delegates attending our live webinars have access to our eLearning site for seven days of pre-reading prior to attendance and three months after the course to allow time to read, download or bookmark resources that will help a new licensee.
People who study on-demand courses through our eLearning site have access to the course materials for three months, allowing study to be scheduled around other commitments.
People taking care of animals will also have the benefit of one years membership of Research Animal Training (RAT) when they study with TLC.
Depending on the establishment you are employed by or studying with, you will also have access to a local module that provides information about health screening, important people to know and other information specific to your establishment.
Each training course consists of a series of modules. For information about the modules, click
