Training

Training Courses Available – to Spring 2024

At CPSARC we offer all three levels of training – Foundation, Intermediate and Full. Details of courses can be found on the website, see below. They are now being run over the Autumn/Winter period in the Royal British Legion (Cockenzie).

Normal pattern is a Foundation Course followed by an Intermediate Course then another Foundation Course followed by an Intermediate Course and finally ending up with the Full Licence Course. This is changing in 2023 due to lack of requests for Training Courses. Courses will be run on an ADHOC basis.

As a back-up and due to the continual Coronavirus Pandemic the Training Program the dates below may not end up Face-to Face due to COVID restrictions that are in place but if that happens we will revert to training via the ZOOM option. With the Face-To Face training the exams will be the Paper exams from the RSGB but may change to on-line exams bookable via the RSGB Website if Covid Restrictions come into place. If interested in any training course’s contact me via the following methods and suitable arrangements will be made to accommodate your training requirements.

If you are interested or you know of anyone who is interested in any of the Training courses can you contact me and also get them to contact me so I can get everyone registered, etc…… Dates will then be arranged to suit.
There is a fair amount of paperwork involved so the earlier I am contacted the better, plus fees paid allows me to purchase all the course material and confirm room bookings for the courses.

Note: Fees could change if RSGB Exam Fees (being raised from 1st April 2023) or Other Fees are raised.
