As part of our commitment to your learning, we have developed six online units that make up the Student Essential Training programme. They are designed to give you the knowledge you need to understand 51³Ô¹ÏÍø's values and expectations around academic conduct, safety and behaviour. The training takes around four hours to complete in total, and you can work through it at your own pace rather than completing it all in one sitting.

The content for this course is managed by a range of 51³Ô¹ÏÍø staff. If you have any issues with the content, please contact the Education Office, and if you have any problems with the system, please contact ICT.
