Dunno what the part time is , but the full time was about £3000 for part 1 and 2 and i think they offer part 3 now too.
i was alright, i was mostly doing for the experience and not for a job, cause there are basically no jobs out there, pulse can get a job if you are amazing, my best mate who done the course with me ended up as assisant engineer in westwood studio's, he done, the Corr's new album, and a load more stuff for big names, he was supposed to do U2's new album but he quit before it.
The hours are terrible usually from 11 in the morning till 2-3 at night, and you only get paid if you are working, so if the studio isnt booked for a week you arent paid.
