advanced training+ testing?
 

Hi lads,
Im thinking of goin to the uk for a week or 2 as im thinking of doing some advanced lessons and a test,
i think there is rospa and IAM?(hazel?)
I think im a pretty safe rider but want to get a cert and maybe get a job out of it in the end,
hope i am making sence and not early morning garbage i normally type..lol
Cheers

Both ROSPA and IAM are good. ROSPA youhave to retake the test every 5 yrs. IAM is a one off thing. I doubt you can do either in 2 weeks.

I did the IAM test last May.

Had one day's 1:1 advanced training on the Monday, practised on the Tues/Wed/Thurs and sat (and passed) my IAM test on the Friday.

The secret is to get good training. No need for weeks of going out with the local IAM group. I can vouch for that.

Good luck.

I went out for my first IAM observed ride yesterday. The observer said that I could probably pass the test straight away if I wanted, but it would be of more long-term benefit to me if I did a few months of training first. I know that there are areas of my riding that need improvement and I'm in no hurry to pass the test so I'll wait a while before taking it.
