Prior to your course:
Make sure to bring a face mask for yourself, you will be required to wear it throughout the course. We ask participants to arrive at least 15-20 minutes before the class start time. Upon arival, you will see signs asking you to wait in a line while keeping a 2 meters (6 feet) distance from other students. Each participant will be required to answer a self-screening survery and provide proof of immunization or a negative COVID test before being permitted into the course.

Demonstrating physical skills throughout your course:
While some skills have been modified to avoid contact, there are still components of the course where students will be required to demonstrate their practical skills on one another. For these instances, instructors will ask the candidates to first wash or sanitize their hands, maintain physical distancing during the task (where possible) and wash or sanitize their hands when the task is completed.
