Thank you to everyone who joined us for yesterday’s Area 4 Training Day

We hope you found the day informative, with plenty of ideas and insights to take away and apply in your own teaching.

A special thank you to Bob Morton for delivering an engaging and thought-provoking workshop covering how people learn, coaching techniques, lesson methodology for the Standards Check and Part 3, and wider industry issues.

We are also grateful to Arthur Mynott for organising the day and to all attendees for helping to make it such a valuable and enjoyable event.

It has now been a month since the changes to the driving test booking system came into effect.

We wanted to check in with MSA GB members and see how you are getting on.
We know the new arrangements have brought significant changes for instructors and their pupils, and we also know that adapting to new systems can take time.

Please remember that if you need additional support, guidance or simply want to talk something through, the MSA GB team is here to help.

You can email us at [email protected] or, if you would prefer to speak to someone directly, call us on 01787 221020.

We know it is not always easy to step away from your driver training business.

Between lessons, admin and everything else that comes with running a busy diary, finding time for CPD can be a challenge.

That is why MSA GB is hosting two free National Online Training Events on 17th August and 9th November.

Each interactive one-hour session is designed to help you stay informed, sharpen your skills and discuss the local and national issues affecting the profession, all from the comfort of your own home.

You can also suggest topics you would like us to cover, helping ensure the sessions are as relevant and practical as possible.

It is a simple and convenient way to invest in your professional development without taking time away from your pupils.
