The Observers are the
back-bone of
every Group
and are essential
to the whole
process. Without
them the Groups
would not be
able to function,
and without
the Groups,
the IAM itself
would not exist
in its current
format.
Observers
are Associate
members who
have gone through
the training
process, passed
their Advanced
Tests to a good
standard, and
have then decided
to volunteer
their services
within their
respective Groups.
They
have undergone
further training
to become Observers
to enable them
to pass on their
new-found skills
and knowledge
to new Associates.
The
Observers give
up their time
to do this freely,
they are unpaid
volunteers giving
something back
to their Clubs.
Many
find that in
doing so they
find that it
helps them to
maintain their
own standards
of knowledge
and riding,
as they have
to keep themselves
"switched
on" to
assist their
Associates.
They
will be allocated
individually
to new Associates
and remain with
them throughout
their training,
so that an effective
and productive
relationship
is formed.
Observers
use their own
bikes for this
role and will
follow behind
the Associate
and "observe"
and guide them
as required.
The
Observers are
there for YOU
(the Associates)
- so make full
use of them
and squeeze
every last drop
of knowledge
out of them
before you have
finished with
them !
