A course runs with at least 10 learners. We teach in groups because the work is done in teams, and a group that is too small cannot do it.
We run a week where the people are. Tell us which course you want and we count you in your own municipality. When 10 people in the same municipality want the same course, RMK sets a date, tells everyone waiting, and you take your seat then. Nothing is paid until there is a date.
You need a Standard Account (R4 800.00 a year) before you can buy a course. Companies and institutions can book a whole group in one payment - 10 places fills a course on its own.
