Hi - I am considering starting in September , I am lead to believe from initial discussions with uni that I could do the 6 month or 4 month pathway - how many days did anyone doing it this way actually go to the university during the 6 or 4 months ? Dizzz

Hi DizzyLizzy

I completed the 4 month validation pathway and had to attend uni 5 and 1/2 days. There were also 5 optional training workshops days of which I managed to attend 3.
Good luck with whichever pathway you choose.

Thank you CC - can I ask you something - did you have any experience with babies as that is the only area I am lacking ?

If you are lacking in one of the 3 areas and you have all the other pre requistites then you should be able to do the 6 month pathway so hat you can do a short placement to gain experience in that area.

I did the SHort pathway. The first term we did 2 hours each week, then we transferred to the validation pathway, which was 4 days at uni. I was lacking leadership experience. I enjoyed meeting others and chatting about EY topics.
