The aim of this short course is to give you an understanding of the main work-based visa category within the Immigration Rules: Tier 2 General. It is aimed at immigration practitioners who are new to this area, or who have a handle on the basics but would like a more thorough understanding. Those coming at things completely fresh may wish to first take our Introduction to work and study visas course.
