Training

Training Courses Available – to Spring 2025

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, Lounge (Cockenzie).

Normal pattern is a Foundation Course followed by an Intermediate Course then the Full Licence Course and another Foundation Course.

As a back-up the Training Program the dates may not end up Face-to Face due to whatever reason 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 any 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 have sadly changed due to increase course running costs
