Teacher-guided independent and computer assisted study sessions.
These study sessions are available to all students enrolled on any course at the Academy. The sessions give students the opportunity to use learning materials of their own choice, including CD-ROMs; computer software and online study materials.

The sessions are the perfect way for students to focus on a particular area of their choice, to consolidate class work or to complete homework while availing of the support and assistance offered from teachers.
