The City and Guilds Qualification in Dog Grooming has undergone a revamp in the past year and the new layout makes it more accessible to everyone. Having to complete the Introductory Level 3 and external written exam before sitting the final exams for the Diploma should ensure that a candidate is better prepared and has the ground work on board to pass with flying colors. From registration you have three years to work your way through to  the Diploma.
So what does this mean to you?

You now have the option to extend your Grooming Course to six weeks and to complete the Introductory level 3  during this time. Be aware though there are Written Assignments that you need to put together for your Portfolio. To allow for this we will still work to to the four day week for the six weeks.

To allow for the certification process an extra week is added on to your course making a total of 6 weeks / 24 days.
