Training
We are keen to support
training at Island Coachways.
Our commitment has been recognized locally and nationally. In 2006 we were
shortlisted for both the RouteOne Operator Excellence Awards – Operator
Training Award, and the Guernsey Awards for Achievement – Excellence in
Training Award.
If
you are resident in Guernsey and successfully
complete an interview and driving assessment, we may employ you under a
training contract and teach you to drive a bus. Our Training Officer, Dave Le
Prevost, will prepare you for your
category D and PSV driving tests. For further information, contact Jenny Down.
Our
driving school can also train external candidates. For further information,
contact Dave Le Prevost.
Any
new drivers are given several weeks of route training and vehicle
familiarisation under the guidance of Dave.
We also pride ourselves on our customer care – so all staff receive
training on their arrival, which is reinforced by externally provided training.
All
drivers receive regular assessments, development and support.
We
support the Apprenticeship Scheme.
Our
management are trained by The Learning Company.
