If you are a qualified NVQ Assessor (D32/D33/A1) or Internal Verifier (D34/V1) and are looking for work in Taxi Driver Assessing/Verifiying (NVQ Road Passenger Transport), please e-mail your latest CV to mbates@protocol-national.co.uk.

We currently have vacancies in Kent and the West Midlands but deal with positions Nationwide so please e-mail me your CV and we'll try and find you some work.

We would all be interested in the pay structure, or is that a well kept secret?

http://www.protocol-national.co.uk/pn/

We have several assessors who frequent Taxi driver online who might be interested in taking up your offer.

Regards

JD

The pay rate for this is normally a per candidate rate of pay (£487.50 per candidate typically), paid at stage payments (normally 25% on enrolment, 25% at an interim point (approx halfway through course) and the remaining 50% on completion of the course.

The work in Kent I should have said is actually to begin later in the year (around October) whereas the work in the West Midlands is to start asap.

We have an increasing demand for Taxi Driver Assessors and Internal Verifiers throughout the country so we would be interested in hearing from anyone who delivers these courses anyway in the country.

Cheers,
Matt

If that is the case why do Protocol in Liverpool only pay £13.32 per hour and won't pay on a per candiate basis and will only allocate 10 hours per candidate :?

Do your NVQ in Passenger Transport then you do an A1 for your assessors cert.

For full funding via Train 2 Gain a candidate should undertake a minimum of 20 hours of learning.

So can we deduce that Protocol in Liverpool are making false claims for funding or are they claiming the lower rate of funding.

How long does it take to undertake an NVQ in this subject with Protocol?

I have many more questions, but maybe here is not the right place to ask them

B. Lucky :D

From memory you've never been shy about asking questions in this forum in the past?

If the questions to which you require answers have a rational basis and don't border on the ridiculous then I'm sure someone will be more than pleased to answer them.

No we can't deduce that because there is more to it than just assessments and you should that

Total rip off if you ask me, WTF are you trying to teach? What are you going to do when the funding runs out in a few months time? The pot won't always be full.

Once your an assessor you can assess nearly anything so they'll move on to the next Government funded scheme :?
