What Flexible Training Really Means at Pitman Training
At Pitman Training, flexibility isn’t just about convenience — it’s about offering training that fits around your life and commitments.
You’re in Control of Your Schedule
We don’t lock you into fixed class times. Instead, you choose:
- The days and times that suit your availability
- Whether you prefer intensive full-day sessions, evenings after work, or weekend blocks
This means your training can be structured around your lifestyle, job, or family commitments — not the other way around.
A Structured Yet Flexible Blended Learning Model
Our blended learning approach combines the freedom of learning from home with the reassurance of ongoing support.
You can:
- Complete most of your course from home
- Stay connected with your Learning Coach and fellow students
- Access structured content with guidance whenever you need it
This is not just online learning on your own, it’s a supported experience designed to help you succeed.
Skills That Prepare You for the Real World
Every Pitman course is built with a practical focus. We emphasise:
- Hands-on, real-world skills you’ll actually use
- Learning in a safe, supportive environment
- Encouraging growth by treating mistakes as learning opportunities
By the end of your course, you’ll be confident applying your new skills directly in the workplace, not just passing exams.
