Available: BASC DSC 1 Courses

I'm looking to do a level one course shortly but I have only one problem with the training offered by the BASC, this is that I am not insured by the BASC but with SACS (Scottish Association Of Country Sports). It says on the application that I need to be BASC insured but will SACS not cover this?
 
There is a high demand for DSC 1 at the moment, with many of our courses now fully booked all the way up until May. Please book early to avoid dissapointment - there is a full list of courses on our website leading up to 2013.

Courses are booking up fast this year, but we still have places on DSC 1's in the following counties for 2012
Staffordshire, Cornwall, Cambs/Northants, Norfolk, Somerset, Kent, Northumberland, Scotland, Surrey, Exeter, Dorset and Essex.

Peter can i ask what legal reason you would have to makeing all who go on BASC DSC coarse be members of BASC.
 
Just when i sat my Lev 1 i sat it with BASC and i was not a member then. I spoke to SACS and they say that it dose not matter who you sit your lev 1 with your insurance will cover you for all. When did BASC change there sand on this.
 
I can't see a reason legally:-| but it means more expense even if you have other insurance and want to go on a BASC DSC course.

If it is a BASC run course you have to be a member - it has always been this way. If you take your Level 1 with someone who is using BASC's assessment centre i.e. David Stretton, John Snowdon, Jelen, Peter Pursglove etc.. then you may not need to be a member
 
Peter the coarse i was on was run by BASC and i was not a member nor were three others out of the six. It was run by Alister Mcgugan now of SNH. While it was a very long time ago things must have changed.
 
I have provided a full list of BASC Deer Stalking Certificate 1 courses below. We have added a number of new venues and dates due to demand. Further details can be found on the BASC website http://www.basc.org.uk/en/departmen...courses/deer-stalking-certificate-level-1.cfm. Please book early to avoid disappointment. Please be advised that those highlighted in Red are already booked up, but always give us a ring to find out if its worth putting your name on the waiting list in case we get a cancellation - this often happens so its worth trying
