During the virtual classroom sessions, Trainees will have a live video feed with their instructor talking to them, doing practical live demonstrations on equipment being involved actively in the learning. We will send out a practical kit so that trainees can complete assignments and practical work at home. The kit is the property of Hi-Tech Training and will be returned to Hi-Tech Training on the last day of the course. (The kits may also be purchased by the learner….see the Kits Page Link [http://hitechtraining.ie/product-category/alarm-access-cctv-courses/fire-alarm-foundation/] for more details).
