IMI / DVSA Assessment Training Video & Why You Could Fail!

[tyrekicker]

Given the fact that the annual assessment this year is much stricter I decided to enrol in the IMI "Light Vehicle MOT Annual Training AND Assessment 2020/21" To not only give me a bit of a refresher and of course 3 hours CPD points, but also the advantage of possibly obtaining a good pass rate. 

Having just completed the course, watched all the IMI training modules which to be fair were reasonably helpful, there was one issue that bothered me.  If I were to take notice of what is being advised in this video I would no doubt definitively fail !

Watch this video to see if can you spot why?

Exactly my point.  Searching that way to answer questions would take about 5 minutes a question. Which means you would only be able to answer 12 in an hour which would be 40%! = FAIL, FAIL, FAIL, FAIL! 

So paying 30 quid to watch crap like that was a complete waste of my time and money. And although some of their videos were okay it still registers with me as a total load of bollocks! 


Not impressed with IMI preaching useless sh1te like that at all.

You have to also accept that the people preping and presenting the material are not from the trade, they have no practical real world experiences and are fully reliant on text books and their terminology.

I fully agree, the lack of consistency in terminology has not only made our day to day job of testing more difficult to get it right but the likelihood in exam or “quiz” situations finding the correct answers.

Yep totally agree, would love to get hold of the pathetic quango sitting in his office thinking all this grief up for us.  It would give me great pleasure in grabbing little cock round the scruff of his and repeatedly bashing head against his f@cking desk top!

Keyboard error!  Should have read " little cock round the scruff of his neck and repeatedly bash head against his f@cking desk top!" 

LOL... How many disciplinary points would I get for that?

 Definitely and make sure there was hard contact for every point!

I hope it's not Windows 10 version as I'm about to invest in one because because my 7 can't be used now for many manufacturers systems. Use my 7 and give me his 10 and i'll lower the points score to 30 on passionate grounds

thats the problem with most training nowadays, given by TRAINERS, not teachers, know sod all about any trade but can memorise a syllabus verbatim and bluff any questions, last one I had like that was abrasive wheels, great fun tying the tw@ts in knots
