Foundation Licence Manual Pdf

Foundation (MSF) has made this manual available to help novice motorcyclists reduce their risk of having a crash. The manual conveys essential safe riding information and has been designed for use in licensing programs. While designed for the novice, all motorcyclists can benefit from the information this manual contains. The Foundation Licence is the entry level for those wishing to engage amateur radio after they gain the Amateur Operator's Certificate of Proficiency (Foundation). Those wanting to gain this qualification will need to undergo competency-based training, learning and assessment. The knowledge and skills required are set out in the AOCP (F) syllabus. ASDIP Structural Software Foundations full and complete title to the Software and accompanying documentation, and all intellectual property rights therein. Subject to the License Restrictions below, you are granted a personal, non-exclusive license to use one copy of the Software and any updates thereof on a single computer at a time.

We’ve created a series of Powerpoint slides to help with UK Amateur Radio Foundation training courses. These regularly-updated slides are free-to-use by any UK club, group or tutor.

Our Foundation Training Slides are designed to be used in conjunction with the Amateur Radio “Foundation Licence Manual training book, and follow a broadly similar flow. They are also a perfect complement to our free Foundation Online training course. These use the generic “Ham Train” brand, as opposed to the branding of any specific club.

About our free Foundation Training Slides

When creating the slides, the intention was to create training material that would be easy for tutors to use, and that would be familiar to candidates who’d already been studying using the RSGB’s “Foundation Licence Manual“. We wanted to create slides that would be easy to use in training sessions, and contain relevant photos and videos to support student learning.

Additional material, including handouts, mock exams and flash revision sets have also been created, to help students understand the topics, and prepare for the RSGB’s Foundation exam. They’re also available free – See our UK Amateur Radio Training Material

Training Videos

We’ve put together this short video clip that shows some of the slides in action, as well as introducing the hobby and explaining the Foundation practical sessions:

We have a number of other training videos that might be of help – See our dedicated Amateur Radio Training Videos page.
