BCF Level 5 Advanced Training

General Notes on BCF Training

SAPMA/BCF TECHNICAL TRAINING is available for distance learning only.

Students work through modules by downloading the coursework material from our study portal. Students also complete online assessments and written tests at the end of modules which are marked by a Coatings Training Institute tutor, who is appointed when studies commence.

All instructions and learning plans are provided at the beginning of each module, and students are given a personal web page where they can track their progress.

Support and all study materials are provided in English, and we recommend you have a mentor from your employer to support your learning where applicable. Students are assigned a tutor once they have registered for the online training. This tutor will be available online and will assist the student to complete the training, as well as answering any questions or concerns relating to the module that the student is completing at the time.

Training is all online, and the assignments as well as some of the assessments will be submitted online. There is still a handwritten exam that the student will need to complete, but this will be arranged with the student, BCF, and the tutor as and when required.
