I want to ask him for his number so that we can keep in touch after the course has finished. However, he isn't the only person that I want to keep in touch with from the course. How should I ask him for his number, without it looking like I am only asking for his number? Should I tell him that I am going round asking other people about keeping in touch?.

Just straight out call him aside and ask him, even if anyone else may overhear you. Don't be afraid to grab the bull by the horns.

Keeping in touch is best done by just adding people on Facebook, so that excuse wouldn't really work all too well.
There's nothing wrong with just asking for a guy's number, that way he'll know your intentions too.
if you make some kind of round about way excuse to get it then you literally could go on months of him not having any idea you're interested and ages of trying to connect only to find out he's not interested or something.
Ask him out, cut to the chase and see what happens. It's not like you ever have to see him again if he refuses, and if he agrees to it then at least you'll have started something properly and not just started a long winded game of hopes and hints.
OP being asked out is one of the most awesome feelings in the world, as a guy I can tell you it's great. Even if it turns out he's not available he'll still appreciate it.

I suppose the best way is to be honest about it to yourself, him and be clear about your intentions !
I am not sure if you want to be more than friends or not !
If you like to , just go ahead and ask him when you see him , I'll like to stay in contact with you after striking a bit of conversation!
That way it wouldn't be awkward and it will show your intentions as well !
But if you want to make up a game plan, just say you need a bit of help with the course and ask for his number ! However, that way you will be sending a friends only gesture!
Another way can be ask for his help/ opinion about anything and say something like I need to do a certain thing and I needed opinion but I am in a hurry. if possible give me your number and I'll call you up when free ! Example : I need to change my car tires, so I was thinking if you know anything about it and I will appreciate your help, but I have to do some chores for now, how about I ask you over the phone ?
Good luck!
