Ask us Anything 3rd June

I think there's so much.

Obviously, the last few weeks, we've talked about risk assessment.

We've talked about dynamic risk.

We've talked about levels of instruction.

We've talked about adapting lessons.

They're all interlinked.

But what, Hardy, let me start with you.

What is your first initial thought at hearing that stat? One in five people that were called to standards check, only one in five passed.

It's quite alarming.

I know that the 17 competencies are identical, whether it's a standards check or a part three.

And on a part three, I've heard the word unnaturalness being mentioned by an examiner.

They understand that the trainee is new to the industry.

However, on a standards check, the examiner is expecting a more experienced ADI.

You know, I know all PDIs are informed that yeah you you may well get a standards check within 12 months so the figure that you've mentioned what it what if i'm reading between the lines uh adis need to be really really aware that quote unquote mike fowler the part three passing the part three is the starting line they've got to really increase their d and get better and better and better

yeah What we don't know, I guess, Andrew, and we can only assume here, I guess, is that we know that about 18 months ago, the DVSA made a shock announcement that they were going to standards check everyone in the Luton area.

So what do you think we can make from that data if we are to make the assumption that the DVC have gone in hard on a load of people in the looping area and done standards checks? What do we think we can learn from that or glean from it perhaps?

So just before we do that, Matt Stone's a great friend of mine.

He is no longer with the ADI and JC.

Oh, apologies.

Okay.

Lovely bloke.

And he is a stalwart in the industry.

Yeah.

So there's a couple of things that could have gone on here.

Okay.
