In September 2009 ACM will be running a new course aimed at helping people who want to work as road crew. The course is run in association with Cato, who are the UK's leading tour production company. The course will cover modules such as; technical stagecraft, sound checking, tour planning, artist interaction, stage management and monitoring. This will be a 1 year course, that will give students a Btec National Award (level 3) qualification, which is the equivalent of 1 A-level.

Famous quotes containing the words tour, production and/or management:
“Left Washington, September 6, on a tour through Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, and Virginia.... Absent nineteen days. Received every where heartily. The country is again one and united! I am very happy to be able to feel that the course taken has turned out so well.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“The growing of food and the growing of children are both vital to the family’s survival.... Who would dare make the judgment that holding your youngest baby on your lap is less important than weeding a few more yards in the maize field? Yet this is the judgment our society makes constantly. Production of autos, canned soup, advertising copy is important. Housework—cleaning, feeding, and caring—is unimportant.”
—Debbie Taylor (20th century)
“This we take it is the grand characteristic of our age. By our skill in Mechanism, it has come to pass, that in the management of external things we excel all other ages; while in whatever respects the pure moral nature, in true dignity of soul and character, we are perhaps inferior to most civilised ages.”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
