www.ncca..co.uk very good basic training for begginers, i recommend you go on the course before buying a machine as they will demonstrate several sytems to you rather than manufactuers, you can then decide for yourself which avenue to take, i went on the course then gained membership and benefitted greatly from the "hands on days" and the newsletter not to forget work referals from the site which have more than paid for my subscription.

Ken, Derek, ill be waiting for that cheque. phew.

Procehm course is good for the money.

Normal cost for a 1 day course is £95. However, Prochem give away training vouchers free with a new machine..try a wanted ad on this forum and you should be able to pick up an unwanted voucher for around £50.
