Surrey, BC and beyond…

Surrey Amateur Radio Communications (SARC) in partnership with the Surrey Emergency Program Amateur Radio (SEPAR), now offers an online Basic course every 10 weeks. In the past year we have certified students of all ages in the BC Lower Mainland and beyond. These new Amateurs came from all levels of society, some with technical backgrounds, most without, as young as 12 years and as old as 85. Some were off-roaders, outdoors people, individuals looking for an interesting new hobby, and those interested in community service or emergency preparedness and staying in touch if the “Big One” hits.

Due to demand, we have added additional classes. The class is entirely online with instruction on seven consecutive Monday evenings and supporting videos available at any time.

Our online instruction offers the same course, with the same material as our classroom version. Our online CANVAS software is in use by universities and is rated among the highest in terms of reliability, ease of use and security. It requires no special software installation and may be accessed by a variety of web browsers on any Internet capable device and any operating system. There are also iOS and Android apps should you prefer those.

The course is divided into 12 modules, matching chapters in our included manual, and each chapter includes the slide presentation, the classroom video and supporting YouTube videos. There are online review quizzes that provide feedback and explanations for each module in the ISED Basic question bank.

The fee for a local student is all-inclusive at $80, but we also have special student and family rates. Because the real learning happens after the course, we include a year’s prospective membership in SARC (a $30 value), with access to our Zoom meetings and presentations.

As long as the current demand persists, we will continue online classes year-round, starting approximately every 10 weeks.
