How many hours does sfi take?

The Centre for Adult Education allocates a different number of hours for sfi studies to each student. This depends on factors such as your study background and the course you will be taking. If you need more hours, your teacher can request extra time if your attendance is good and if the teacher believes that extra time could lead to a pass grade.
