Seems like the DCPC providers are not doing too well after all?
Seems like they run an agency too…

We should have a thread of cheap DCPC providers like the cheap medicals thread 
Anyone up for maintaining it and trying to keep it updated ?

To be fair mate, it’s a bit of a mixed bag, and quite often depends on what’s on offer.
Some of the providers who wrote courses designed to tick all the DCPC boxes are struggling, and there’s no denying that. However, the providers who were already offering portable and recognised qualification courses and then tailored them to suit DCPC tend to be doing OK with it, because the candidates get what they need, plus a DCPC bonus for no extra effort.
Of course, there are exceptions to both, and I’ve only been quite general with my observation.

I thought I saw ROG take one pace forward when everybody else stood quite still. 
Could become an issue …
If limited to only courses which a member attended then a lot of cheap courses which are available could not be mentioned due to site advertising rules … am I correct?

Why would it need to be limited to courses members have attended ? 
I don’t see that naming companies/trainers that offer cheap courses is any different to mentioning that my local Tesco has Mars Bars on offer.
I don’t know if my local Tesco’s do have Mars Bars on offer by the way

7 Bars for £2.75 - ONLY £2.00 is asda
8 years ago, I remember getting a mars bar for 30p… starting to show my age 
Other brands of chocolate bar are available.
Also available at other well known retailers!!!

Well I suppose it depends in whose favour the rate cut is

ROG, this isn’t complicated and it won’t become an issue.
If a TN member goes on a course, and then recommends it, then it ISN’T advertising, and it’ll work just like the recommended driving schools topic in the Newbies’ Forum.

Advertising rules are only breached when the person doing the recommending is connected in some way with the company.
Surely, common sense says that somebody isn’t going to go through a list of cheap providers and then take the trouble to post them on here without being able to say what their experience of the provider was. That would be a spam post, and those get deleted without further discussion.

I don’t see how it’s spam, a few posts above someone is informing people of cheap Mars Bars at Tesco, there’s no guarantee he’s tried them, but according to your logic if he hasn’t tried them it’s spam
A list of cheap courses would be there to save people money, not for any individual to make gain in any way shape of form, therefore how could it be spam
Sorry Dave, but unless I’m misunderstanding what you’ve said, your definition of spam is flawed
Truckuk.net in Peterborough. £55 lunch included and all the tea/coffee/squash you can drink, and buiscuits and mints on the table

According to their website it’s £65 inclusive of VAT and upload fee, still a lot better than some though

If I did it then I would be inclined to list any cheapish course I came across no matter how or from where I got it so perhaps its not a good idea for me to do it
