As usual, busy day of driving instructor training in Bishops Stortford with five trainees. James from Loughton in particular is totally focussed on the first attempt at the Part 3 test on Wednesday. Gerry from Peterborough has a great big grin on his face as he has been signed off to get his trainee licence and will start teaching very soon. Claire from Hackney and Dave from Romford are both working hard on Part 3 ADI training as their Part 2 driving skills are up to scratch. Tony and Steve are both leading the training session which as usual lasts until 2pm.
KISS Trainer Rod is in Sydenham, South London working with Atta, Ben, Hakim, Sandra and Zahra covering ADI Part 2 and ADI Part 3 training . Our trainees today have come from Bromley, Croydon, Greenwich and Woolwich. Very much part of the KISS Driving Instructor Training programme is the help we get from our local ADI's who turn up at our weekly ADI training sessions to help develop our trainees. At KISS we train people to becoema driving instructor first and pass the tests second. This is because a good driving instructor will be able to pass the tests. Someone who has been trained just to pass the tests invariably fails to develop their career according to statistics.
