Enhanced Learning Credits
I feel it is time to cash in some ELCs.
What is the most creative use anybody has come up with to successfully enjoy their free training?
Funny, useful, or bizarre, I will consider all options.

A glamour photography course - ELC provider found, all above board...
...once I convinced the Learning Centre by offering my talents after the course. Still looking for models to maintain currency...

I would like to apologise for the flagrant innaccuracy in my origional post. What i should have said is:-
What is the most creative use anybody has come up with to successfully enjoy their heavily subsidised training thus accepting the small personal contribution in the interests of seeing pusser off to the max?
Can we get back to the purpose of the thread now please?

Not the use of ELC, but there was a stink in the press a while ago when an SACW found a training provider to instruct her as a pole dancer as part of her resettlement. And that is free up to your earned entitlement, including T&S.

you should keep one of your ELC's back for when you leave as you can use it then.

A mate of mine went to Sri Lanka for 6 weeks to learn how to train elephants. He told the resettlement people that he wanted to join a circus when he left the RAF at the age of 55.
Having seen Tourist attempt dancing on a pole, I'd have to request no one encourage him. I too would love to know what else people have managed to use ELCAS for. (think I'm also a bit past the pole dancing age).
Use it or lose it.............

I believe if you use it for resettlement then you are exempt the 20% self contribution too. Easiest way is to just google ELCAS and have a browse through their courses (you need a rough idea of what you are interested in or you will be there all day).
Know a guy who has used it to study Spanish in Spain.
