FULLY BOOKED
I am sorry but the course due to run in January is now fully booked.
As this will be the final iteration of Gateway Online in its current format. We will be taking a short break after the end of this round as we are working on redeveloping the format of Gateway. I hope you find the newly developed course when it returns better, stronger and even more engaging. Please watch this site for further information on the new format and dates when they are ready for release.
