- The Course will run from 08h30 to 17h00 daily. Please ensure that you book your return flights (if applicable) from 18h30 onwards (19h30 onwards for international flights). This will give you enough time to complete the Course and get to the OR Tambo International Airport on time.

This will not be allowed. If you choose to leave early and miss the final written test, you will forfeit your Official Course completion certificate.
