Planning ahead for Dreamstore Academy

We are delighted to be able to announce three further Academies in Scotland in 2010, one in North East Scotland, Blairgowrie and one in the Central Belt, Whitburn, both starting in January, and one planned for Orkney sometime after Easter. This will bring the total number of Dreamstore Academy qualifications delivered in Scotland to over 100 in under three years, which is a tremendous achievement.

Providing coaching qualifications that offer ideas and approaches to applying angling as an activity offered within education, youth and community activities provides a tremendous return on social investment. Like learning to drive, once the qualification is completed there is a lifetime of learning and engagement in passing on advice and support to those who wish to start or improve on their angling.
