Anyone who has been in to drop the pre-employment forms and ID documents in to WM at Birmingham for the forthcoming TD courses, can you confirm if this is just a quick, informal meeting, or is there more to it?
I’m wondering how long I may be there, and also whether I need to dress smart, or casual?

It’s pretty quick. 15/20 mins if that. I went in jeans and a jumper as I was shopping in Birmingham at the time and it was much more relaxed there than when I went for my interview.Anyone who has been in to drop the pre-employment forms and ID documents in to WM at Birmingham for the forthcoming TD courses, can you confirm if this is just a quick, informal meeting, or is there more to it?

It could be for next years courses, the gap between my stage 1 assessment and stage 2 assessment was 5 months.

Thanks. Tests are dots, glop, dials, tones, symbols, tones & symbols together and fault finding. I found the glop hard but the rest ok. Make sure you understand the fault finding process.

Is there anything I can find for glop and fault finding test or look out for they sent me a few tests to look at but don't seem much information in there to be honest

The fault finding is the same as the practice stuff they sent you. I think there are more online. The glop is memorising a page of writing and answering multiple choice questions about it. Try reading a book or paper & getting someone to ask you questions.

All courses for this year have been filled subject to medicals, that's information from my driver manager, they do have a course Januray so maybe for start of year?

Wow well let's hope I can get through them they haven't sent me much to practice with to be honest I'm trying to find information on here

I only used what they sent me & found it enough to pass. Download the Group Bourdon tool from here and practice that. It’s easier on paper though, so maybe print some pages off if you can.

Just had an email inviting me for stage 2 at the end of Sept so possibly getting everybody to similar stages for next year?
