As you can see, a number of these course have recently been run, (but don’t let that put you off if you wish to attend a course). We can always sort out another course; if you wish to find out more please contact myself, Paul or Tim, or just ask around the club to find someone who was on the last course to see what it was like.
For more information you can go to http://www.bsac.org/techserv/
If you fancy completing ANY of the above courses then please RSVP me so I can best help to run the course. I have a few names already for some of the courses.
