    Transport for Wales - Trainee Train Drivers

    Hope so mate as I have no experience. But you can say that about any job. I had no experience of being in the police and got through the course and learnt all the rules, laws etc. So don't worry I'm sure the trainers know how to get us through it

    Is the assessment day really that difficult!

    Think a few people have hit the nail on the head. Its more about the person, as some people no matter how much they try don't grasp the concept of what they want. The prison service do a few similar ones. I had passed and I was helping my mate and no matter how much he tried he couldn't get...

    Transport for Wales - Trainee Train Drivers

    Do you mean GLOP. It has all different bits of info in. Some people take notes and learn from that. Me personally, I read the passage, then skimmed back over it, thinking All correct. You put a one sentence answer to the questions. At mmi they remind you what you put. However you can change it

    Assessment Day Help

    Sorry to hear that mate. But least next time you'll have a better grasp at it. Regarding reapplying I believe you can apply you just can't do the assessment within 6 months of the fail date. So aslong as there was a delay you'd be OK.
