What is the Refresher Course?

The Refresher Course is a short, focused session for qualified phlebotomists who have been away from practice and want to update their knowledge and rebuild confidence before returning to work. It covers the core concepts and refreshes the practical and theoretical knowledge you need to return to practice with confidence.
