Combined TEFL courses include both online and classroom components and on completion you get a complete TEFL certification. Some companies also refer to these types of courses as “hybrid” or “blended” courses and they are very popular with people seeking the freedom to study independently in their own time, but also get the classroom element and interaction with other students and the help from an experienced teacher.
