    You do not say what subject, or whereabouts you are, so the best I can suggest, is to contact your local Further Education College.
    Quite often the Colleges will run intensive courses at easter or during the summer.

    Can I ask do you work?

    If not and available during the day, the Sandy Row IT Centre. Evening courses are hard to get into as full. If not working they are totally free. You work at your own pace. I assume you want to do Text Production and Word Processing?

    Jim Watt is the tutor and brilliant.

    Tel:02890 329919 ( he is off this week but back next week).

    Phone after 10 am.

    Classes are morning or afternoon, Tuesday-Thursday. He goes to other centres on Monday and Friday.

    I'm glad someone else posted this, I plan to do my rsa stage 2 on my maternity leave and a short course before baby arrives or before I have to go back to work would be ideal.

    Just to let anyone who was interested in the courses at Sandy Row.

    Jim the Tutor is off because of ill health, he was due back this week but that has changed.

    OCR have an office in the business park at the bottom of Newforge Lane (the narrow road directly across the traffic lights from Balmoral avenue) in south Belfast. I'm sure they would be able to give you information on course providers etc.

    If you're willing to travel as far as Limavady, there's a place there called "Northwest Lifelong Learning" that run a "RSA in a day" course.
