Tech editing - which course is better

Hi! I'm thinking about doing some training to become a tech editor to scratch a bit of an itch for more technical, mathsy stuff to do. This used to be a small part of my job but I've changed roles and I miss it a bit.

I've done some research and the two gold standard courses seem to be the Tech Editor Hub and the TGKA course. Does anyone have any experience of the two, and could recommend one over the other?

I must say I find the Tech Editor Hub site quite off putting. It's presented like an MLM and is very expensive. I'm not trying to switch careers, it's just something I'd like to do and maybe make a small amount of money on the side.

TIA!

LL is using my address for invoice, is he trying to dodge tax?

We had a leak in my rental flat last week. I paid for a plumber to come in after my LL agreed I would be reimbursed.

I asked the plumber to make the invoice out to him, not me, and he asked me for my landlord’s billing address. My LL told me to put the address of my rental flat. He does not live in the flat, ie we are not lodgers.

Is he pretending we are lodgers for tax purposes?

We pay our own council tax etc and he is not listed on these bills. Since we moved in last year a couple of letters for him which appear to be related to the state pension have been delivered.
