Brother, anyone attended WSQ course conducted at Citicab Building before?
Do you guys think it is worth $380 which was claimed by Comfort as sponsor of the course (found out in the course it is partially paid by Singapore government too).
Did you guys experience any increase in income (or drop in income after the course)?
Do you guys think it is worth it to attend this course?
I actually made a loss the day I attended the course as they still made us pay the full rental for the day.
30 persons attended this optional/compulsory course which means $11400 per course conducted by 1 instructor (from Kaplan) for max of 8 hours only which means $1425 per hour.
Compare this with the essential taxi course by Singapore Taxi Academy which only cost $350 for 10 days which includes course materials, lots of maps and examination fees which leads to a taxi license (which means full pay) for taxi drivers (average of only $25-$28 per day after factoring in course materials and examination fees).
The only tangible benefit is a $30 cash card free gift (which is a drop from the $60 I was told by a Comfort personnel before the course started) but this is still far from the loss of income we suffered (a few times that) if we had not attended the course and continued driving.
Worst thing is after the course, more foreigners came to troublemake (purposely asked me to speed up when they can see cannot drive faster because too near to vehicle in front and cannot go faster and said strange things in the taxi ).
But it was revealed in the course that a taxi-related organization revealed that after the additional new MRT lines are completed, they projected the situation as only SMRT and Comfort would continue operating (meaning only Uber, GrabCar, SMRT and Comfort operating while Transcab, Prime and SilverCab would be gone).
Waste ur drvg time.only people gain r the organisers
What is the purpose for the course? After finish got anything can improve income?
How come got foreigners ask you to speed up? Doing demo driving there?
