This is a one-lesson double certificate course, at the same time can obtain SCA Sensory Foundation certificate. The Q Grader certificate is valid for 36 months and requires taking a calibration exam every three years to renew the certificate. If you are not qualified, you can make up the exam within 18 months. After completing the second year of the first calibration, you can apply to become a Q teaching assistant or tutor.
