Coaching – The Next Level
Coaching – the Next Level
Mercure Hotel Milton Keynes, The Approach, Two Mile Ash, Milton Keynes, MK88LY
Monday October 21st
The workshop will enhance any basic coaching skills you may already have and you can study the art of coaching at a more advanced level for the driver training industry. In turn this will help you stand out from the other ADIs and enable you to gain more customers due to the experience you give them. This workshop will take your skills to the next level and help you to develop lasting changes in driver behaviour.
The workshop is suitable for:
• All ADIs who want to continue to learn more about client centred and coaching skills
• ADIs who have previously enjoyed other basic coaching courses and want to develop themselves even further
• ADIs helping to train other ADIs in client centred techniques
This workshop is an opportunity to meet fellow ADIs and take time to yourself to consider and improve your coaching and client centred skills. Our expert trainers, Parv Walling and Lynne Barrie are there throughout the day to help and support you.
The agenda:
• Understand how we learn
• How the brain works in the learning process
• Learning for the long term and setting the scene
• Understanding EQ (Emotional Intelligence)
• Influencing negative attitudes and limiting beliefs
• Developing coaching conversations focused on thoughts, emotions and beliefs
• Understanding behavioural change techniques
• During the day you will continue to develop your essential coaching skills: rapport, listening, questioning and feedback
Bookings via the website www.adinjc.org.uk or on 0800 8202 444
Price: Members £99, non-members £119
The workshop includes lunch and refreshments throughout the day, free parking, resource materials and CPD certificate.
We’re going to design guidance to help you carry out the most realistic mock driving tests possible.
But we cannot design it without the help of instructors like you.
Have your say to help us understand what you use for mock tests and what you think needs to be in our official guidance.
You’ll just need to fill in a short survey – it takes about 10 minutes. It closes on 2 October 2019.
Thank you for your time – we really appreciate it.

Since we launched our 5 year strategy in 2017, we’ve been working to become a digitally-enabled organisation. We want to provide modern, efficient and sustainable technology to support a mobile workforce and build brilliant digital services for our staff and customers. Part of this work is developing an app to be used by driving examiners to record driving tests electronically.

From today (1 April 2019) we’ve made some changes to the Official Register of Driving Instructor Training (ORDIT) scheme, to improve the quality of driver training.
Our latest blog post from Jacqui Turland explains more about the changes and how they’ll work.
Read ‘Improving the quality of driver training’
The ADINJC is a national association run by ADIs on a not-for-profit basis. We work tirelessly to inform, represent and support our members, and to promote the interests of our profession.
We have received an interesting enquiry from a retired Yorkshire police officer living in The Gambia. He runs a small driving school and is also chairman of a charity organisation, The Road Safety and driving Standards Association, in The Gambia.
He has received a request from the local Bus/Coach company to provide driver training for all their drivers as they are incurring enormous losses in terms of accident damage, causing serious delays to services which further causes problems with customers. The company runs many services both within the country and to neighbouring countries such as Senegal and Guinea.
He is therefore looking to employ a qualified Driving Instructor for Buses/Coaches and Heavy Goods Vehicles to satisfy the company’s needs for a period of say, 6 months, and at the same time train 2 or 3 instructors to carry on the work when the contract expires. Expenses, accommodation and salary would be paid for this contract.
What an amazing opportunity for an instructor to experience training in a foreign country and under different conditions to Europe!
If you think you have the qualifications, skills and experience for this opportunity, please email the secretary in the first instance – secretary@adinjc.org.uk. All enquiries will be forwarded for consideration.
