I initially chose to study at ACAP for a number of reasons; the degree of flexibility, the highly experienced trainers and the focus on experiential learning. Now that I have actually commenced my studies, I am finding that ACAP is most definitely meeting all of my expectations. I have taken advantage of both the on-campus and distance education options for study. All of the trainers I have had have been very knowledgable and supportive, and the classes are highly interactive.
