Jessca Posted November 20, 2008 Author Share Posted November 20, 2008 if you are doing it via distence learning you get offered the two (assistence and scent), but after finding out about the tracking one i requested to do that and am doing it with the local students.

Teebs Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 The five electives, 1) Obedience (they have now made that part of the main course) 2) Assistance 3) Scent 4) tracking and trailing 5) Working in kennels if i remember correctly TB, what part are you having trouble understanding? None now!! I emailed them and they told me the bit i wasnt sure on, we actually did in our block training Only got some questions to answer (i dont do agility, but i think i can handle this now!) Then its only Detection dog and Complex skill to do! if you are doing it via distence learning you get offered the two (assistence and scent), but after finding out about the tracking one i requested to do that and am doing it with the local students. Ahh! Now i get it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poocow Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Hopefully I can do this next year. Really depends on how much leave I have saved up and if I can fit it in with work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Midol Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Yah. I'm giving them one more chance, after that, I won't be able to due to time constraints but surely they can't mess me around three times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kavik Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 I'm have been told that they are doing a bridging course for those of us who did the course before it was Cert III next year so I can upgrade my qualification :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessca Posted November 21, 2008 Author Share Posted November 21, 2008 thats really good, then you'll have the qualification. i tell you they can be a bit slow, and screw you around. a few weeks in advance they told us where the venue was, i called up the day before to confirm everything,when they got frustrated with me, cause they had sent us the wrong address for the place. which screwed everything up for a few of us cause we thought it was along the train line, then it was moved to the middle of no-where(which would have been great for me if i had my license, as it was 20 mins down the road, but unfortunately im too lazy to get my license) it really sucked.

Kavik Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 i tell you they can be a bit slow, and screw you around. I've figured that bit out already Been in correspondence with them for MONTHS on this issue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Midol Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 (edited) Jessca, they gave me the right times and dates then moved it forwards a week without telling me. I had booked all my accommodation, organised time off work, paid for everything I was taking and then LUCKILY TB found out that it had been moved. Somehow being moved 20mins down the road seems minor to me :rolleyes: Edited November 21, 2008 by Lord Midol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessca Posted November 22, 2008 Author Share Posted November 22, 2008 thats ridiculous!! and for the amount of money we pay for the course!!! i hope you gave them a really bad report/evaluation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozi Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Hi all, I just recently got back from my 2nd block session in melbourne and i'm absolutely loving the course! I have heard of people having lots of trouble with admin type stuff, i think due to a change over in staff. Still no excuse for moving the date and not telling you!!! OMG! Personally i've been treated really really well. Assessment results all on time, prompt replies and very helpful when i had to change to another course line. Its unfortunate its not been like this for everyone. HOpe it improves! Apart from the admin side, how is everyone finding the course? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teebs Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 but would be nice to get something back to say i have passed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigsaw Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 I'd email or ring for results if you haven't got any yet. They do seem to be terribly slow getting results out. If you do happen to get NYC you're given another opportunity to answer the questions (and it may only be one) and you can phone them and ask for clarification too about the question.
