Make the most of time with a trainer
Practical training is easier to use well when you arrive with clear questions. Keep a record of your own work, identify the skills you need help with and confirm what to prepare before attending.
Before you arrange travel
- Ask for the next available dates and the confirmed location.
- Check which equipment option you have selected.
- Ask which online lessons or practice tasks come first.
- Tell the team about your starting experience and learning goals.

Keep learning between practical sessions
A lesson becomes more useful when you return to the exercise with feedback in mind. Keep dated practice examples and a short question list. Review the tattoo training information or contact the New Zealand team when you need help choosing a format.
