I did my 38 earlier this year and you only have to do 2 different rescues, 1 being using both lines the other being the assessors choice. I did a full-time city and guilds level 2 and they only taught us 2 rescues: 2 lines or 1, hence that what I did. Having said that, the assessor was a bit concerned we hadn't been shown other types of rescue, that's Cannington College for you! Do the NPTC's. Any cowboy can climb trees and cut stuff. Surely it's better to be able to prove you're not a cowboy. Good luck!

That's exactly what Im worried about. I'm also trying to get a new business off the ground and I'm also a single mum.. not that I wanna whine on about how hard I've got it- many, many people have a much tougher time, no doubt, Just seems, with the amount of research there is to do, nevermind the expense, maybe it's just not the right time for me. I'm frustrated coz I want to do it, but my gut feeling is I'm taking on too much at once. Bugger. Thanks for advice...

Ha Ha Ha!!! That made me laugh out loud! Seriously tho, first aid should just be a given as part of any arb course, surely. Seems obvious to me...

I started Tech Cert this week having done level 2 last year and it just seems so much higher than level 3. Just seems like a massive jump from where I am educationally, to there. Am I just being a girlie? Coz right now I feel like packing it in. Am I at a disadvantage for not having the practical experience most of the other candidates have? It certainly feels like it. Should I hang fire and maybe think about it next year? Any advice appreciated, I'm in a real quandry...!
