The next Advanced TD Training Day (previously known as County TD Preparation course) will take place on 25th March in Aylesbury.
The course is aimed at people who wish to take the next steps towards County level directing.
This is a one day course, beginning at 10:30am and ending no later than 4:30pm. The course fee (£72) includes tea and coffee but you will need to bring or make your own arrangements for lunch.
The course is for those who need some practice at the type of material that will be tested on the main weekend. It is also suitable for those who want a 'refresher day' but who do not intend to go any further.
To get ready for the preparation course - or to see if it may be suitable for you - please download this test paper consisting of 40 situations to consider. Some are book rulings, some judgement rulings and, in some cases, good old-fashioned common-sense. Some are quite intricate and others straightforward, but hopefully they will all make you think.
