Practice Management - 30 Hours Core Subject
The course is divided into four sessions and includes home study. We look at the main aspects of running a complementary health practice from marketing to the legalities of running a kinesiology practice from home.
Students are encouraged to look at their own individual space and practical abilities, so they can be clear in what they are offering to clients, and what they can practically fit into their lifestyle. You do not need to have trained with us before and we offer training via Zoom. Each part costs £100. Please note - You will be required to keep a log of every hour taken to complete this course.
