June was a busy month for DART Advanced Rider Training and we are pleased to report that Colin Blackley, has gained further accreditations and gained himself a new role too.
FIRST STOP: SHREWSBURY
Earlier in June, Colin travelled down to Shrewsbury to complete the DVSA Enhanced Rider Scheme (ERS) Instructor Training. The training took place at the DVSA Approved Training Centre, Fast Trak Training, under the guidance of Director, Dave Palmer and Instructor Assessor, Jeff Morris.
Colin said: It was a fairly involved week in Shrewsbury, but the effort was worth it and I achieved an Accredited Instructor pass. A big thank you to Dave and Jeff from Fast TrakTraining for guiding me through the process.”
Colin wasn’t home for long before he had to head south again.
NEXT STOP: WILTSHIRE
Later in June Colin travelled 200 miles south to Amesbury in Wiltshire to be assessed by the British Motorcyclists Federation (BMF), Blue Riband Training Scheme Administrator, Tony Smykowski.
It was another successful trip for Colin who was appointed as the Chief Instructor for No 1 Region (Scotland South) by BMF.
Speaking afterwards Colin said: “After Tony put me through my paces he signed me off as the Chief Instructor No 1 Region (Scotland South). This is great news for me and for DART Advanced Rider Training. As a Regional Instructor, I’m now responsible for assessing and appointing additional trainer/assessors.”
