Unfortunately it doesn't seem possible to enrol on the foundation course from that guy, just the intermediate course.

Essex ham do have an online foundation course (no affiliation ) - am planning on doing mine this year
Ahh seem's like he's updated the Intermediate course since the RSGB updated the course parameters. I'm guessing the Foundation course has also been updated and he's either working on it or not. I've heard great things about Essex Ham.
 
Indeed, foundation is quite simple, rote learning will get you through it, and the recent licence changes make it a much more useful ticket than it used to be. Which annoys a lot of 'classic' amateurs.

Being located in N. Ireland however, I notice that there's a bit of a groundswell in Ireland to bring in a foundation equivalent licence there. Not sure where the rest of Europe sits. It's a matter of maintaining sufficient numbers of users of amateur allocated bandwidth... It's important.

I think I'd like to see an earlier opportunity to use the license abroad. I'm a button presser not a solderer and if the kit off the shelf is the same the only issue is knowing the 'local' frequency boundaries and a few bits of varying legislation. At the minute it's the only inspiration to get the full license.
