BMW/Kirsten is asking me to produce certificates of the defensive and advanced driving courses I took back in the 90s and V8 corporate drive days. They are in storage boxes somewhere. In the absence, I have to demonstrate why I should attend. After dealing with show cause situations at work, I'm not about to do that for a M drive day. Ian may be right after all, spend my $500 on a Burrow drive day instead.

Will confirm tomorrow.

I was in the same boat, I sent them a photo of my CAMS license, explained my track day frequency, sent them a booking confirmation to a John Bowe Drive Course and a picture of my car! They were happy with those.

It may be worth calling the companies you did the courses with and asking them to look through their records and confirm directly with BMW.
They are a bit bound by their insurance to ensure the participants have prior track experience with a powerful car for the M Dynamic course. Andrew (Kirsten's manager) and I spoke yesterday and after I have provided some extra information and it is all good. I guess this is what happens when insurers are involve with their cars. Whilst when we track our cars we understand it is not insured.
