What the platform is

  • Public part: information about upcoming training courses, free lessons, textbooks, self-assessment tests, a blog and a directory of technicians.
  • Account: access to the training courses you are enrolled in, your applications and your settings.
  • Online classroom: live sessions for the training courses you are enrolled in.

Account

  • The account is personal. Do not share your password and do not give your access to anyone else.
  • Notify us if you believe that someone has obtained unauthorised access to your account.

Enrolment for training

  • A submitted request is an enquiry, not an automatically confirmed enrolment.
  • We contact you in order to confirm the group, the date and the location.
  • Places in a group are limited; a request does not guarantee a place until it has been confirmed.
  • The dates and locations of the upcoming training courses may change; the current ones are those published on the site.

Online classroom

The live sessions are accessible only to the participants enrolled in the relevant training course. Do not record and do not distribute the sessions without explicit permission.

Recordings of past lessons are not yet provided through the platform.

In the event of a breach, we may restrict or terminate access to the account.

Career assistance

  • The academy is not an employment agency and does not guarantee employment, an interview or a reply from an employer.
