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.<\/p>\n

Our Foundation Training Slides can be used in conjunction with our Amateur Radio “Foundation Study Guide<\/a>” training book, and follow a broadly similar flow. They are also a perfect complement to our free Foundation Online training course<\/a><\/strong>. These use the generic “Ham Train” brand, as opposed to the branding of any specific club.<\/p>\n

About our free Foundation Training slides<\/h3>\n

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 material. We wanted to create slides that would be easy to use in training sessions and contain relevant photos and videos to support student learning.<\/p>\n

Additional material, including handouts, mock exams and flash revision sets, has also been created to help students understand the topics and prepare for the RSGB’s Foundation exam. They’re also available free – See \u00a0our \u00a0UK Amateur Radio Training Material<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Supporting Course Book<\/h3>\n

\"Foundation<\/a>If your students are looking to work from a sourcebook, you may want to consider offering them the Foundation Study Guide.<\/p>\n

This handy-sized study guide covers all of the material from the HamTrain slides, as well as a mock test, extra tables and photos not found in our slides, plus exam tips and FAQs.<\/p>\n

The Foundation Study Guide is available now from Amazon in Paperback<\/a> and on Kindle<\/a>, as well as on Apple Books<\/a> and other formats, including as an audiobook. For more, see our Foundation Study Guide<\/a> page.<\/p>\n

Training Videos<\/h3>\n

We’ve put together this short video clip that shows some of the slides in action, as well as introduces the hobby:<\/p>\n
