Good morning. I originally trained as an instructor almost 30 years ago & at the time the only choice was to be RTITB registered. David Pusey is as always 100% correct with the evolution of the history of UK Awarding bodies. As commercial trainers & members of the AITT it made commercial sense to become Accredited by RTITB & ITSSAR. Over the years RTITB have been somewhat difficult to work with to the degree that after 30 years we decided to focus our operations around ITSSAR. Now we rarely get asked for RTITB training which means that as our RTITB registrations expire none of us has decided to re-register, which for me is a little sad after an almost 30 year relationship. In my humble opinion the industry needs an awarding body which is more balanced as again in my personal opinion RTITB are a little to rigid & ITSSAR are maybe a little too lax on occasions.
