By 2020 the training courses had moved online and we were now attracting a global audience. During the Covid pandemic all our training courses were cancelled so we decided to develop a distance learning course.

We’d been asked many times over the years if we would develop a distance learning course as not everyone was in a situation where they could travel to the places we were teaching.

We always thought that it was too difficult to teach a practical skill not in-person so had always refused as we thought that there were too many obstacles to overcome. During the various lockdowns we were forced to give some serious thought to overcoming those obstacles.

We re-wrote the course notes and reset them for displaying over the internet, developed some innovative ways of teaching the necessary level of contact, and shot over 40 training videos. The course finally launched to a global audience at the end of 2020.
