Another bout of congratulations are due, this time to Ash, who has just passed his Direct Access mod-2 motorcycle test FIRST TIME!
Now he’s all set to pick up his Honda CBR600RR and enjoy it over the Easter Holiday!
Well done, Ash!
Huge congratulations are due to Tomasz, who today passed his Direct Access module-2 motorcycle test first time to go with his first time module-1 test pass from Monday, meaning he has got his full motorcycle licence in just 4 days and with just 2.5 days training on our experience rider course!
Yet another example of the high quality training you can expect from Inner Circle Training as he was taught by both Paul and Nic!
Well done, Tomasz, we look forward to seeing you again soon once you’ve decided which bike to buy!
Massive congratulations are due to Halid who had just 2 weeks to obtain his full motorcycle licence and has done just that with the support of Inner Circle Training!
Starting with his CBT and theory tests last week, this week Halid has completed one of our 3.5 day Direct Access (DAS) courses, adding an extra 3-hour session yesterday to give him maximum preparation and today it paid off as he added an excellent first time module-2 motorcycle test pass to go with his first time module-1 test pass from Monday!
So now he’s got a full motorcycle licence and can ride any bike he likes, no wonder he’s smiling!
Well done, Halid!
Big congratulations to Adam who this morning passed his Direct Access module-2 motorcycle test first time to go with his first time module-1 test pass from Monday (and his first time Theory test pass too!).
We expect to see him riding his YZ450 enduro bike around the green lanes of the Peak District very soon!
Congratulations, Adam!
We are thrilled to announce that Inner Circle Training has become the FIRST motorcycle training school in the North West to achieve the coveted MCIAC Accreditation!
This award has been developed by the Motorcycle Industry Association (MCI) in conjunction with the IMI (Institute of Motor Industry) and is a professional qualification for ATB (Approved Training Body) owners. It is awarded following a course delivered by the MCIAC (Motorcycle Industry Accreditation Centre) and several follow-up visits and inspections to ensure that the ATB (in this case, Inner Circle Training) is well managed and professional. In order to achieve the award we have had to demonstrate to an independent assessor that our training school is of a very high standard – something our customers already know. And no we are accredited, our customers are surveyed monthly to ensure our standards remain at the highest level (and they are!); and we will be formally inspected annually too, to keep us on our toes!
In the words of the MCIAC themselves:
“MCIAC believe professionally recognised vocational qualifications are the future for those working in the rider training industry. The Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) hinted at this when they began working with stakeholders on Instructor Registration in 2011/12. This was abandoned when legislative changes became unlikely, so this left only the voluntary route and this is where MCIAC courses come in.
It is important that accredited ATB’s and Instructors get the extra recognition that they deserve for investing time, effort and money in their business. It is also important to the industry as a whole to encourage more, well trained, safe riders on our busy roads and for the future of motorcycling.
Currently the DVSA only check standards once every 4 years on average and are mostly by appointment. With the MCIAC qualifications, all customers of accredited ATBs will be surveyed after their training, which will provide robust evidence based intelligence to ensure that our Quality Assured Award is only given to those ATB’s and Instructors who genuinely meet those standards 100% of the time.
Safety is paramount as we want to see more riders using PTW’s but not at the expense of more casualties and we believe that ATB’s and Instructors who take the opportunity to complete these courses will deliver a professional high quality training experience and will be able to prove it. They will also be able to differentiate themselves from other trainers by proving that they are at a higher standard and understand the needs and wants of their customers.”
So now you have the proof that Inner Circle Training is the BEST place to learn to ride a motorcycle or scooter – we are currently the ONLY training school in the North West to have achieved this accreditation.
A massive congratulations to William who passed his Direct Access module 2 today. Despite the freezing weather he did a fantastic job and returned to the Inner Circle full of smiles. Well done !
Well done William !
Big congratulations to Martin who today passed his module-2 Direct Access motorcycle test at the first attempt, to accompany his CBT which he passed just a week ago, his motorcycle theory test which he passed last Monday at the first attempt and his Direct Access module-1 motorcycle test which he passed on Monday also at the first attempt!
That’s another person going from never having ridden on the road to a full motorcycle licence in under 2 weeks!
Welcome to the Inner Circle, Martin!
A huge congratulations to Chris, who despite having his first mod-2 test cancelled due to last week’s snow, passed his Direct Access module-2 motorcycle test this morning at the first real attempt. This goes with his first-time module-1 test pass to make yet another Double First!
Well done, Chris, and we look forward to seeing which bike you choose when you join us for one of our many social events!
We have added a new page to our website to notify you of any updates from the DVSA regarding motorcycle test cancellations at the test centres we use.
It can be found here.
