The TADARC has taken on the role of training amateur radio to the three RSGB levels - Foundation Course, Intermediate Course and Advanced course. So far, twenty-nine Foundation, eleven Intermediate and five Advanced students have been trained to Exam level since training commenced in 2006. The Taunton Club is now a recognised and accredited venue of training and also as a Test Centre. After the Foundation and Intermediate Exams, the papers are marked immediately and the students are told the result, there and then. The Advanced Exam papers are marked at RSGB Headquarters. Being an acredited Examination Centre, TADARC also accepts candidates who wish to take exams but have received their training elsewhere. The cost of the Exams for each candidate are: Foundation - £22.50. Intermediate - £27.50. Advanced - £32.50. These fees are set by - and paid to - the RSGB.

PLANNED TRAINING
The courses are planned on a follow-up basis so that students have an opportunity 
to make practical use of their current Licence before advancing to the next course.
