Notice Information

Notice Title

Air Brake Training

Notice Description

This contract is to deliver Air Brake Training for approximately 550 delegates over the initial contract period for Vehicle Examiners and Post Collision Examiners. DVSA enforcement Vehicle Examiners are required to conduct examinations of large goods vehicles and public services vehicles. These checks can be part of a roadside inspection, fleet inspection or post collision investigation. To be able to conduct a full technical inspection the Vehicle Examiners needs to have working knowledge of basic air brake systems as well as more advanced and current technology employed in large vehicle braking systems. Post Collision Examiners need more in-depth knowledge to allow investigations following vehicle collisions. Post Collision Examiners are required to provide high standard detailed written reports with supporting oral evidence to the Police. These reports are often subjected to close review by defence councils and industry experts.
