This guidance is for those still studying on one of our online courses numbered BEFORE Course 168, on Fast Track F-09 or on On-Demand-01

If you’re still studying on one of the above courses, you will likely know that from 1st of September 2024, the exams are changing, to reflect recent licence changes brought in by Ofcom (which improve how we can operate). For more on the changes, see 2024 Licence Changes – Guidance for students.
This means that the course you’re on is now only valid for exams up to and including 31st of August 2024.

Please add any comments or questions below:
I hope there is no English Grammer question like with the main test itself which I failed. I only want question that to do with Ham Radio itself and also not to use words that confuse those that are dislectic.
