The course requires minimal or no previous work experience or training in that field. In general the training is fulltime day courses, but vocational qualifications can also be performed as many area training.

The qualification’s vocational skill requirements are defined so that their achievement requires complementary and speciali-sation studies after the vocational qualification and prefer-ably at least three years work experience.
