I apologise again for the stress and disruption caused by the cancellation of the Written Divisional exam on Monday 19 February, and undertake to release the findings of our investigation as soon as possible.

Following urgent work overnight and today by College staff we have finalised a new date for a paper-based re-sit of the Basic Training Written Divisional Exam.

The new date for the exam is Friday 2 March 2018.

The Computer Based Test, which was cancelled, will not count as an exam attempt, and there will be no extra charges associated with sitting the test on 2 March.

The College will be contacting trainees personally tomorrow with further details regarding the new test.
