I did it a few years ago. It took me two goes to pass the final exam. The examiner threw in a brand new Karibiner that had part of its gate mechanism deliberately filed off. Only one person on the course sussed it..
it’s a great course, it really stretched my knowledge and understanding of kit and it’s applications.
I built up up a good client base which helps as I don’t climb so much now.
It’s not the most thrilling work out there and trying to read endless microscopic long numbers can give you serious eye strain.
Professional indemnity insurance cover is a must as well.
