You really need to be around people in the business.
Film course is a broad term. That could mean anything. You need to look into post production sound. Editorial, mixing, supervising etc.
Your best bet is be an intern and be a fly on the wall. Maybe move up to assistant/tech.
Or school that can teach you and give you connections to be an intern or assistant.

There is one institution here that appears to offer post production specific training for which I have enquired. The film and TV production course does look broad but it does let you choose to specialize in post production.
I appreciate your answer for needing to be around people in the business. Hopefully that will come. I think part of my question is what can I start doing at home myself now to get familiar with processes and techniques? I do not know yet when new training intake dates are and I would like to use the time I have to start learning something... I have Pro Tools installed my home machine and would really like to do something hands on that's constructive. I am finding the Pro Tools 101 eBook and Pro Tools documentation useful.
