The pricelist above shows the training course price and the NPTC assessment fees separately; followed by the total for both.
Some NPTC assessments (IA for Integrated Assessment) can be done during the course – these are shown as inclusive (included) – otherwise assessments are on a separate day.

If you are very experienced and don’t require training, then you can book just your NPTC assessments with Lynher Training or at any assessment centre nationally. We are happy to discuss with you your experience and whether this would be an option for you.

Prices given are per person. Discounts are available for groups and will depend on group size and location – please contact us to discuss options available. Discounts & special offers cannot be applied to NPTC assessment fees.
