Basic VCA – classroom + online (in Czech)

Hybrid Basic VCA course in Czech
The hybrid Basic VCA course in Czech combines online learning with a one-day classroom training session held just before the exam. This format allows participants to prepare for the exam at their own pace and then reinforce their knowledge under the guidance of an experienced instructor.
This training model offers highly effective preparation—especially for those who want to obtain the Basic VCA certificate in a short amount of time and in a comfortable environment.
If you pass the online test, the theoretical part is considered completed and you will be directed straight to the practical component.
Note: We reserve the right to verify the participant’s theoretical knowledge again during the practical session or through an additional test to confirm the online test was completed based on the participant’s own knowledge.

Access to online learning materials (in Czech)
One-day classroom training session before the exam
Basic VCA exam
Digital certificate upon passing
Full set of training materials
Hot meal, drinks, and snacks during the course day
