Myth:

Fact:

Everything you need to motivate yourself and pass the Part 1 Theory & Hazard Perception Test. Further; how to look after your vehicle and make huge savings & ultimately prepare a foundation for your Part 2 Advanced Driving Test & Part 3 Test of Instructional Ability.

"I can qualify in 4-12 weeks yeah?"

"A quick Google search can have all sorts of time frames for learning, however, the reality is that with test waiting times around 12 weeks, it's not impossible, but truthfully, highly unlikely.

Based on Catz-i.com ADiT factual figures, the following is true 2017, 2018 & 2019 Tax Returns;

"Earnings in excess of £30,000 per Year."

TV adverts claim that you can "EARN" £30K per Annum and I agree that this is a fairly accurate figure if you are in a Franchise. If you go solo in your first/second year, you will be building your customer base and realistically this would more likely be £24,000 in year 1.

You can see this looks good on paper. But... you need to deduct all of your vehicle expenses, franchise, CPD courses, sickness and when customers that are on holiday etc...

Therefore, the greatest downside of being Self Employed is that

'If you don't work, you don't get paid'.

Nevertheless, after tax, national insurance and all working expenditure, you can bring home a very decent (and real); £28,000 - £30,000 in your first year as an ADI with all of your training being 'Tax Deductable' too.

Myth:

Fact:

Myth: "All Instructor Training organisations are the same?"

Fact: "I want to answer this by telling you why we are different.

Do you remember from the previous page how many people complete the whole course and qualify?

"11 out of every 100 People"

This can be for several reasons and the most common are below. It is however very difficult to get accurate figures based on the way the Government figures are calculated, but in my experience the reasons are:

1/. Current work circumstances changed for the better:

2/. Family circumstances change.

3/. Part 1 test more difficult than they thought.

4/. Part 2 test failure on third attempt.

5/. Lack of money.

6/. It's taking too long to pass.

7/. New job.

8/. Part 3 test failure on third attempt.

Another way to look at this is that if 100 people pay £3,000 in advance, thats £30,000 the Trainer has made, before lifting a finger. Now that you have paid all your money and it's in their pocket or in a contract to pay all the money regardless of whether you qualify or not, what incentive does your trainer have in you qualifying? If you were the trainer, would you be quite happy that 80%+ didn't go any further than their Part 2 test? It would save them around £4,000 in expenses too.
