Prior to gaining the booking link, you are required to complete online learning via the account of the individual that is attending the course. 

Please use the below guidance to access the course yourself.

At no stage should you need to create a new account for any learner. Should you believe that this is the case, please email Referees@CambridgeshireFA.com who will be able to check to see if an account is already in existence. Everyone who plays football will have an FA account in place already.
