Finally a tool that actually maps to the DVSA competencies. I can see exactly where I'm improving between observations — it's made my training sessions so much more focused.

As a trainer with multiple PDIs, having everything in one place is a game changer. The observation forms are quick to complete and my trainees get the feedback instantly.

The Part 2 digital marking sheet is brilliant. I used to do it all on paper and then type it up. Now it's done in the car and submitted straight to my PDI — saves us both time.
