Re: First week at the B.T.S.C Chessington
Hi I have just finished mod 13 at the BTSC. The whole experiance has been excellent, but there is a fly in the ointment. The number of trainees learning there has fallen by about 40%. since I started Feb 2006. Therefore the wait to get on the next module has increased, which means that some trainees take longer than 12 months to complete the 8 modules and are penalised by having to an extra £250 per module after the 12 months.
No body in my group was told about the £20 charge for the BTSC test with every module as well as the City & Guilds. This test is meaningless, it is used to extract extra money and to delay the trainees progress beyond the the 12 months and incur the extracharges.
Its a crying shame that the management's greed has spoilt, what would have been a very enjoyable course. The trainers and facilities are fantastic. I would never say a word against them.
However, I hope you enjoy the course.
