What is the benefit of undertaking training modules over a longer period of time?

By restricting how frequently drivers can undertake their driver training the training programme and the dissemination of information and knowledge retention is increased. You will find that staff will often undertake research or discuss issues that have been raised in the training modules.
 

When drivers have completed their assessment/training can they review strength or weakness?

Yes, when drivers have undertaken the assessment they can review their strengths and weaknesses in the four core competencies.
 

Some of our drivers are not very computer literate, would this be a problem?

No, the programme only requires individuals to move a mouse & click an appropriate area. All sections of the programme have practice questions so all individuals to become familiar with how it works before undertaking any assessments.
 

Are some drivers at an advantage if they are an experienced computer gamer?

No, there is no advantage in being an experienced computer gamer when undertaking this programme. The process requires that the user identifies the pertinent hazard within the timescales. A driver requires the same skill & attitude set regardless of gaming ability.
 

Some of our employees do not have an email address. How do we manage these individuals?

Where this situation occurs we will forward access codes & passwords to a nominated contact who can then pass these on to those individuals. However, where this happens all future emails generated by the system will be sent to this intial email address unless it is changed.

What if I have a slow broadband connection?
