Yeah you can do it on a laptop but it’s not like the real thing. I got more errors on the laptop than with a pencil and paper.

Hi TreacleMiller,
Do you mind me asking what practice papers you are using? The ones I have are 15 deep too but only recommend 30 seconds to do it.
Thanks

I am extremely concerned at the news that the plug has been pulled on recruitment for the Sheffield work, which will remain with EMR.
I feel like our employment as trainees is at risk now, more than ever before.
Applied for, thought may aswell look into it. Odds are if i passed my dmi id be in a pool for a while, so why not apply elsewhere and get the experience.Is that something they offered to you or you applied?
I'm still at home waiting to start training!
Ahh me too..but more so you, youre stuck in a state of limbo.Absolutely. Get a foot in the door and it will help tremendously! I hope they will contact you soon though!

In cab training hasn't resumed yet. It does look likely to resume soon with the "training bubble" concept but I believe finer details on this need to be agreed with ASLEF.
I will be honest and say I'd not hold much hope for these vacancies materialising at some if not all, depots. The company is already over establishment at certain depots and has a number of qualified drivers who are restricted waiting to be assessed to get back in driving.
I hope I am wrong and more people get a chance at becoming a driver, but I think it is only fair to be realistic.
Cheers for the update Moose, my fear is that these trainee driver jobs may never materialise in the end. It is good to know that training is slowly starting up again.Training recommenced this week I believe - trials are underway at certain depots for those closest to passing out. Believe the plan is to roll out further should these trials be successful.
Basic training still waiting, so I don’t think there’ll be any movement on new starters for a little while yet.
ASLEF signed off training at the beginning of September.

Training has not recommenced across the board. There have been trials but there has been some issues picked up by the union. Therefore training has not resumed.
There is a difference between signing off and agreeing in principle.
In cab training at TPE has resumed, 8J is wrong.
