STA strongly recommend this course is completed in sections / topics rather than within one sitting. This will allow time for the information to be processed, reflected upon and create an opportunity for the theories to be applied within practice. Completing individual sections / topics and applying them in stages will also help to review the effectiveness of these changes.
