Training courses in the C language

And we're always listening for new trends. The first Well House Consultants course - 2 days on Perl that was the the predecessor of the current Perl Programming - was written in response to a handful of requests from professional contacts, and from that tiny seedling our whole business has grown.
I have noted, of late, requests for C and C++ training. The requests have been growing, and that's largely because C (especially) has reverted to being a niche language. Although almost all modern computing is based on underlying system software and languages which are themselves written in C or C++, the need for most programmers to actually code in C is no longer there. And yet ... there are some requirements there, and there are now fewer places where you can learn C itself.
I've written and run C courses in the past. I've got a great deal of C experience - I've probably done more C than Python and Tcl put together ... so perhaps now is the time to dip a toe back in the water and say "If you're looking for C or C++ training, please let me know".
