Well Training is getting to the point where invidiual Groups are running Level 3, BBF 1 and Supress Wildlife Courses, Hell just last weekend I was helping up at Kangarilla Staton run a Level 3 Course when a BFF 1 course was being run down at SCTC, how does that make any sence?????

Not sure how things work where you are mate, but our group, and the neighbouring groups have always run their own Lvl 1,2 and 3 courses, with STC only being used for further specialisation...

And what is wrong with that,there are more venues which reduces overcrowding and interfering with course participants doing other courses :wink:

Because SCTC is a Group operated resource, set up by that group, whereas STC is a State/National resource
