Ok. A more cost effective method for you may be to just buy the books from Mr Higgins (one at a time I suggest) and give the self study route a try. Much cheaper than doing the course and you still get to go to work everyday. Does take a bit of discipline though. I would suggest NAV first then maybe loading? I found these two the easiest out of the four harder one's but you may say different.

The books are expensive but you may find someone who will loan one or more to you for a fee of maybe some beer? If your mechanically minded even systems may be tackled on your own. Flight planning on the other hand was my nemesis which required some one on one help from Nathan himself for which I am very grateful (that said it cost me a lot of money).

Hope that helps.
