looking to start a new career (had enougth of the kids as a
youthworker) was thinking about becoming a driving instructor or a
motorcycle instructor. looked on a few web sites found loads about
driving but not a lot about motorcycle instructors. can anyone send
me some links to web pages or just some info about jobs or training

thanks john

RoSPA do some courses - looks like it will take a while & will cost ya!
But if you love it ... it will be worth it!

I used to do it sometime ago..but in the end i got fed up of following around snotty kids who knew it all on smoking 2 strokes that would barely be legal nowadays.. mind you that was in the days before the cbt ..just the part 1 and 2 tests back then.. but i must admit it did have some good things going for it.. you got to meet and train loads of folks from various backgrounds and i did feel i was putting something back into biking... if its what you want to do go for it

The RoSPA course is for advanced riders only and is accredited by both the DSA and Btec.

If you want information on this particular course, PM me as I wrote and ran the diploma course until my resignation earlier this year!
