I'm just enjoying the show!
You asked, so I did it. We should have it up on the Magpul website within a week or so. I'm on my way back to the US and will give Chris the last details he needs as soon as I get back.
The class is in there database, and should appear on the schedule on the net within a week or so.
Here are the details

Course Description
An entry-level course where students are familiarized with their rifles. The class will thoroughly cover:
Hardware/Kit
A functional carbine or submachine gun chambered in 5.56x45, 5.45x39 or 7.62x39mm or standard pistol caliber weapon systems. If available, a spare weapon system is also an excellent idea. A cleaning kit and tools that are compatible with the weapon system(s) in question is also a must. Each student should have a minimum of 5 working magazines. Sometimes magazines will make it in your dump bag and sometimes they won't. If they hit the ground they can become fouled, causing weapon malfunctions and time off the line.
