Current Status
This classroom based course will not be available at this time. For several years we have been working on a project designed to offer online versions of our various classroom training courses. We anticipate that the first modules will be launched in the next few weeks. The first module will be the online version of our Level 2 Road Consignment and Transport module. This will be followed by the online version of our Level 1 Foundation module. Other modal modules will follow in the order RID (Rail), IMDG Code (Sea) and ICAO/IATA (Air).
Please register an interest in receiving a notification of the release of these modules by emailing us at: ram@class7.co.uk
It is our aim to recommence classroom based courses if and when conditions permit.
