VIRTUAL GEAR FOUNDATION SEMINAR.


VIRTUAL GEAR FOUNDATION SEMINAR.


We are delighted to announce that the renowned British Gear Association Gear Foundation Day has been developed into a live interactive online training programme.

The course will not only equip the delegate with the basic gear knowledge to make a success of their career but also allow them to benefit from the more specialised seminars presented through the year in the BGA’s Knowledge Transfer Programme.

Each session will be completely interactive allowing delegates to ask questions and have them answered in a live environment. Participating delegates will receive a certificate.
