Job interview while on course

Hi all,
My JC adviser has referred me to a training provider who has offered a Prince 2 course. It's the full 5 day 9-5 course with the exam at the end.
I am also waiting to hear if I will be called for an interview for a job I've applied for.
My worry is that the interview will fall during the week of the course. It may not do, or I may not get called for interview, but its a role I'd really like.
What should I do if they clash? The interview would only require a half day of the course to be missed. Is it acceptable to do that? I'm sure my adviser would agree that the interview shouldn't be missed but I don't want o cheese of the provider or mess up the course (I would obviously catch up in my own time but I'm not sure if the provider would allow this??)
But then I also don't want to miss out on a great training op for an interview that may not even be that week!

The Foundation exam will likely be on the Wednesday afternoon and the Practitioner will be on the Friday, usually late morning.
Other than that it is working through the book and the terminology so could in theory be read in your own time. Best to speak to the provider about their policies on attendance.0 -
Ok thanks, I shall give the course admin a call and talk over my issue. Cheers for the info on the way it runs too!0
