Completion of the online course provides you with a solid theoretical foundation, but practical training with an instructor is required to achieve certification. Once you pass the online assessments, your instructor can guide you through the practical elements.
Your digital logbook keeps a record of your online learning and can be shared with your instructor. This ensures that when you are ready to progress to practical training, your instructor has a clear understanding of your knowledge and preparation.
