Distance Learning Course for Full Exam

The Bath Based Distance Learning team (BBDL) helped nearly 800 students to pass the Advanced exam under the old syllabus. Between 2011 and 2019 over 28% of the total UK Advanced exam passes were BBDL students and the pass rate was over 80%, compared with a national average of 65%.

After reworking their training material, and running a successful Intermediate course, the team are now planning their first course for the Full level exam syllabus. The course will run from March to June this year.

Students will receive weekly work packages via a virtual classroom and will have access to weekly online tutorials. Students will also have access to one of the remote tutors who will provide feedback and additional guidance when required. There are weekly quizzes to check progress and at the end of the course there will be a number of mock exams.

There will be no charge for the training but applicants will need to work through a pre-course classroom and quiz to be eligible for a place. If the course is oversubscribed, places will be allocated at random from those successfully completing the pre-course work.

Each student will need to provide their own RSGB Full Licence textbook and arrange their own exam at the end of the course. It seems likely that the exams will be on-line with remote invigilation. Advice will be provided as part of the course.

The deadline for course applications is Wednesday 17 February 2021. To request full details and an application form, please e-mail BBDL Team Leader, Steve, G0FUW, via g0fuw@tiscali.co.uk
