Membership
Membership for 2009 will close at the end of July. This is because the
renewal date is 31st December and we believe it is not worthwhile for
anyone to join for only half the year.
However -
Membership for 2010 will start from September 2009!
This is to enable those starting courses in October to join.
In effect you will get free membership for the last 4 months of this year and
your renewal date will be 31st December 2010.
