Everyone learns differently. That's why I offer the SRC radio course in three versions – flexible, compact, and practical.

Friday evening + Saturday
Ideal for anyone who wants plenty of time to practice. We train together using the original radio equipment, review all radio messages, and prepare you intensively for the RYA exam.

The compact option for fast learners. You prepare at home with learning materials, and we review everything important together in a 1-day in-person training session.
