Sounds really good, and I would love to do it. Do you know when the "basic and advanced" prereq courses run?

The "Basic" course is finished for this year and the last "Advanced" lesson is on THIS Monday night...

However, If you contact Helen Bodill on (02) 4570 9033 at Richmond TAFE she may be able to tell you if they are planning courses for 2011.

Good Luck
