Young Driver Focus

Venue: Royal Automobile Club Pall Mall
Date: May 1, 2019	Cost: From £125

As all road safety professionals know, young drivers are at high risk of crashing when they obtain a full licence and begin to drive unsupervised. As an example, an 18-year-old is at six times higher risk of crashing than their parents and at three times higher risk of crashing than a 35-year-old who has just passed their driving test.

Finding ways of reducing crashes and casualties caused by young, newly qualified drivers is a key challenge for the Government, road safety professionals and private sector organisations such as insurance companies.

Now in its sixth year, Young Driver Focus 2019 will examine current and future thinking with regard to this vital issue, and what is being done now and in the future to improve the situation.

Organised by Road Safety GB working in partnership with FirstCar and the RAC Foundation, Young Driver Focus is designed to be of interest to:

• Public sector road safety professionals – road safety officers, fire & rescue, police and others involved in road safety delivery
• Private sector organisations and individuals with an interest in working in partnership with the road safety profession.

To register interest in attending please contact Sally Bartrum by email and she will add you to the database to ensure you are notified when the booking form goes live.

ADINJC – An Introduction To Coaching

Venue: Birmingham
Date: May 20, 2019	Cost: Members £99, Non-Members £119

What is this workshop about?

Our industry has now moved towards a client centred approach for learning. Pupils enjoy and appreciate client centred learning: They go away from your lessons with awareness and a real sense of achievement. If you ever leave lessons feeling that your pupil could have learnt more or maybe feeling that sense of frustration that the pupil just isn’t improving, then this workshop can help you. A bonus is that having really good coaching skills can leave you feeling less stressed, enjoying your lessons more, and feeling that the pupils are becoming more confident and able to reflect on their own performance. These are skills that all ADIs need in our industry. This workshop is suitable for:

• All ADIs who want to learn about client centred and coaching skills and how to improve existing ones
• ADIs who want to update their teaching and advance their current skills
• ADIs preparing for a standards check
• PDIs who are preparing to take a Part 3 and newly qualified ADIs wanting to enhance their skills

This workshop is an opportunity to meet fellow ADIs and take time to yourself to consider and improve your coaching and client centred skills. It includes lunch and refreshments throughout the day, free parking, a resources pack and CPD certificate and is held in a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Our expert trainers are also experienced working ADIs who are there throughout the day to help and support you.

Timings: 9.30am Coffee and registration, 10.00am start and 4.30pm finish

The agenda:

• Discover what being a good coach involves
• Learn about the many benefits of coaching
• Understand how to develop the skills needed to make a great coach
• The GROW model and TGROW: What are they really all about?
• Improve your coaching questions and listening skills
• Finding strategies to help your clients
