Hi all. So WCP regulars will know I make part of my living by teaching and testing via Jericho Beach Kayak for the Restricted Operator's Certificate (Maritime), the document you're legally required to have in order to operate a marine VHF radio in Canada.
Due to the pandemic, we've been allowed to offer both the course and the test online for the past couple of years. We've just gotten word that will be ending. There will be some form of online course and test sometime again in the future, but we think that may be about a year out. So if you want online and you want it soonish, your best bet would be to sign up for our March 4 course, as it's the last one we have permission to give online for now.
On the plus side, this means we will be scheduling in-person classes and exams again, which will be great for those who find learning and taking tests easier that way. I'll post on WCP when we have those scheduled.
