Just for information, while waiting out a whole mass of thunderstorms here in the USA, I received this notification:

Your link says that 1,2, 3, 4 and 5* have increased by 20% for members. 3,4 and 5* were double the cost of 1 and 2* (for members) prior to the increase and remain so.

Are you jet lagged? :-)

While fees have not increased since the introduction of the awards in 2007, it is now necessary to support the increased costs of printing, payment processing and postage as well as contributing to the ongoing development of the awards and resources.

The following reviewed prices will apply to the BCU Star Awards and Leadership Registration with effect from 1st May 2012

Members Non-members
BCU 1 Star Certification £ 6 £ 7
BCU 2 Star Certification £ 6 £ 7
BCU 3 Star Certification £ 12 £ 25
BCU 4 Star Leader Registration £ 12 £ 25
BCU 5 Star Leader Registration £ 12 £ 25

Certification fees for BCU 1 and 2 Star awards will increase by £1 for members and £2 for non-members, while BCU 3 – 5 Star awards will increase by £2 for members and £5 for non-members.


You might want to read that again Nick, £10 to £12 and £20 to £25 isn't doubled!

Cheers

Mark, I must be particularly dumb at present, as I read that as increasing from £12 to £25. Yes, jet lag does wierd things to me. Perhaps site admin would like to delete my dumb post?
