HI Folks - new forum member 1st post!
Just today i received my formal offer for trainee driver with SWR shortly followed by the contract and my start date is early next month.
First of all i'd like to thank you ALL.. although i'm a new member of the forum i'm a long time lurker and i used all your collective wisdom to help guide me through the [stressful] selection process, assessments and interviews. This is a fantastic resource and a great online community .. so thanks again.
I was wondering if anyone could help me prepare for the course in terms of what to expect. The annex which arrived with the contract kind of outlines the component parts ie: Commencement of course, rules training, route and traction training but doesn't really go into to any sort of detail.
For example.. how long does each component normally take. Is there an exams that need to be passed before you can move on to the next etc... and anything else you think might help.
I suspect they will give me plenty of information at the HR induction but there's nothing like hearing it from people who have been [or are going] through it... cheers
