THERE'S A NEW GAME IN TOWN!
AMATEUR RADIO!
Be a part of it...
All you need to run Amateur Radio Classes is waiting for you!
TO INSTRUCTORS: "Your material is ready!"
NZART Council encourages more training classes to increase the pool of radio amateurs, to add to the membership of the Association and to strengthen the Amateur Service in New Zealand. The Wellington VHF Group Inc., Branch 74 NZART, with the Tauranga Emergency Communications Group, NZART Branch 88, has successfully trialled new learning material and procedures for the new entrant to Amateur Radio. It provides for candidates for the Amateur Radio Examination working alone or in a class with hand-out notes to make the task of the Instructor much easier. Any qualified radio amateur anywhere can now be an Instructor.
A new 600-question question-bank is presented in a unique way to facilitate easy question-and-answer revision tests using all the real examination questions.
This teaching resource is ready for wider use and you are welcome to use it. From first contact with a new candidate to the after-exam certificate and callsign processing, the procedure is entirely volunteer-based, "amateur-helping-amateur", so the cost to use it is $(nil)! Please help to increase interest in Amateur Radio in your community and establish a local class. This help for you is at hand!
The material is freely available by download from:
http://www.vhf.org.nz/pubs/VHFGuide/
Read about it there. Download a set of the booklets and view the contents. Print them double-sided and bind or staple them with transparent plastic covers as shown. Enquiries to the email address on the web site are welcome. Notification of your use of this material is required for examination and processing reasons and prepared and sealed examination papers are provided when required with ARX services following for the successful candidates.
The cost of printing this teaching material is on you. You may cover printing costs and charge the students as you wish.
Book 1 includes an application form to join NZART. These can be printed from the selected page in whatever quantity is required, one-per-candidate. Early joining is a requested priority!
Remember: All you need to run Amateur Radio Classes is ready and waiting for you!
