For a course? Or where to practice?
Myself, when I first started, I got a Zoo pass and went every weekend. That was with Film, so I would shoot 4-5 rolls and critique myself, and read books on Wildlife Photography (a lot of Wildlife photography concepts creep into other types of photography as well). Once I started shooting digital, I would just Shoot Shoot Shoot. Saturday, I was at the races for a couple hours, really only concentrated on three short track races, and I shot over 500 photos.
As for a courses, SAIT has some good ones I am told.
But a really good exercise is find photos you like, and attempt to re-create them, or at least re-create the technique used in them.
