I always convince the operator to attend rather than you as TM. You already studied all that stuff for your CPC exams, so it's much better for the operator to attend.

He just has to attend and be present, I don't think there's any exam or test, he just needs to sit and listen, that's all.

Always good for operator to either do or go with them. Had one recently and it was done online they just had to visit the link to register and attend simple as.

Remember, whilst it is not compulsory to attend, attendance will be recorded on your file. If you or the operator were ever called to a PI, and you had not attended, the TC would not take too kindly to that. Do attend, participate, and you will learn something new.

It’s like an OLAT course they tell you what you should be doing as a new operator in the area

Can anyone join in with these or do you need to be invited? I’m compliance rather than TM but desperate for more knowledge and help!! Our TM has grandfather rights - done it for years and years - I’m eager to keep learning but we have a budget of 0 for cpd!

Got mine for next week via zoom, a little bit nervous myself as not knowing what to expect but have attended the OLAT course in November so hoping similar to that

I went around 6 years ago to our local DVSA office. Obviously it’s via Zoom these days because of COVID
Despite being a TM and known most of what was said it was a good in-site to the DVSA and it was good to meet some of the local DVSA officers.
Most of the course was a lecture, followed by some Q&A at the end of each section.
