Im not too sure, i will ask him tonight. He has went up to the Tafe early today to do his health and safety course (great you can do it there so dont worry about that) and he is doing his CPR next week so I will let you know where and how much, his boss is paying for the cpr.

He is only using 2 books at the moment, they are expensive but you can claim that and the tafe fees on your tax next year!! thank god for small mercies

Pretty sure it's the wiring rules and cable selection guide.

Another good thing about South Australia, you don't need the first aid/health and safety to get an A class licence. All they want is your ARTC, proof you've passed exam and your fee

Right OH booked on course to start first week in October.

Length of course - 18 WEEKS :scared: Can't do it quicker, classes held weekly, cost is $700 :scared: Couldn't get in at TAFE as no course until Feb, so have to go to Peer (whoever they are ) and they cahrge treble what TAFE do

Better news today,

We've got the enrolment form from Peer. It costs $510, so not as bad as we thought. The course is done over 7 full days, 2 days a week. So he'll be able to apply for his A class in November.
