Hi
What time the class will take place?
Note, lots of spouses cannot attend this class because it is in the morning and they have worked during morning . It would be better class starts after 6.00pm.

Hello Amani,

Thank you for your comment.

While we appreciate the needs of the working spouses, at the moment we do not have the resources to provide courses in the evenings. The majority of the spouses in the program prefer mornings for classes as this is when their children are in school, however, if the demand for evening courses continues to grow, we’ll look into options to meet this demand.
