The classes are theory and workshop based. Using a mix of theory and practical work , students are encouraged to develop an understanding of the principles and processes involved in self-build, to help understand how to programme your build, the initial stages, preparation, improve analysis and appreciation of both good design, construction, and use of materials. Independent research is promoted through a small amount of home study  each week.
