By having meetings?
Yes with a very large training company,because of course they oversee everyone!
bit like shooting fish in a barrel ?
sorry i keep mentioning fish , but it seems a bit fishy.
Moving the posts to make it harder for cowboys to enter this industry will also make it harder for everybody to enter.
How about anyone wanting to do LGV Training MUSTbe sent info pack by the “GOV” with the correct procedure to obtain the licence/training, and a list of legally registered schools/businesses in their chosen areas.
EXAMPLE
step 1= medical & provisional application.
step 2= theory and hazzard test completion
step 3=
and so on,
And also stating what the Trainer MUST supply.
step1= prices
step2= pass rates, with number passes
step3= test centre to be used
step4= vehicles the trainer will supply
step5= procedure of training
and so on, leaving the canditate under no illusion as to what they are entering into, with who, and knowing at all times what stage they are at, and what is the next stage.
im sure the “trainers” could come up with a better way, whilst trying to keep a level playing field, and also a scheme that will ultimately make it clear to who is good and who is not.
Im sure a lot of you trainers would like to, and deserve to keep hold of the reputations you have earned, and why not, you worked hard for it, the OP looks a bit like, ive lived my life, and now im going to tell you how to live yours, and Kerchhhhiiiiing.
