Agreed. For the last version, you could have wrapped it into a couple of days really once you get the basics.

Me and the rest of the course, including the tutor, spent most of our time in the pub.

Seem to remember the exam being comparitively hard, but that may have been because of the pub.

On a serious note though, anyone recommend any training co's to do the course with? Nothing's finalized yet and still looking around for suitable options (looking around the London / Reading / Bucks area )

Don't touch anything involving Tony Jordan or John Dawson or anything involving the 'Amraf' name. They've already sent one company south, and a lot of people lost a lot of money.

I went into the third day of one of mine (2.5k's worth) to find the doors locked and the bailiffs in.
