You must send us the application form with the course or courses you
want to take, and also the dates for these courses. Take into account
that the certificate only covers the period in which you will be

send me some brochures?
We do not usually send
printed information by post (just in case the person does not have a fax
number or e-mail address). Our via of information is the internet (it is
more ecological, updated and fast) and e-mails. We respond quickly to
your questions personally and individually.
