As many instructors will be aware, there used to be a newsstand magazine called ADI News (for a time, a column relating to this blog was published in it). It was a very good read, and it was a shame that it went into an online-only format.<\/p>\n

Anyway, last month I was notified that a new and independent magazine was launching called Intelligent Instructor<\/a>. I subscribed and received my first copy today (issue no. 2). I can wholeheartedly recommend it to all instructors out there \u2013 although Paul (the Editor) might disagree, from my point of view it picks up the old ADI News style and packs a surprisingly large amount of information for an A5 publication across almost 70 pages. In my opinion, an ADI magazine simply has<\/strong> to be available in hard copy format.<\/p>\n

If you subscribe now, they are offering the first three issues free, and 25% off the usual magazine stand price.<\/p>\n

One thing I did learn \u2013 and Intelligent Instructor appears to be more timely with its information than the old ADI News used to be \u2013 is that Mercedes Benz has shut down its driving academy in the UK as of 31 December 2015. The 28 franchisees have been told they can return their cars, or continue to lease them \u2013 presumably as solo ADIs, which means they\u2019ve got to build up their businesses from scratch again.<\/p>\n

Note that I do not write for the magazine, and my views above are based solely on having read it. Oh, and Paul has indicated that it will be in test centre waiting rooms at some point (like ADI News used to be).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
