It's not difficult to approach whoever is in charge in a professional and diplomatic manner and raise the issues they feel need addressing.
By Bishop84 coming on this forum and representing his equally-disappointed colleagues shows immaturity. Personally I get the impression that Bishop84 is used to being spoonfed rather than taking the 'bull by the horns' and sorting stuff out.
This is clearly an internal OAT issue and he shouldn't be so quick to fire his comments at the rest of us (-especially those looking to go to OAT in the near future! (like me!))
I'm less concerned now about the service that OAT offer - but more worried about the type of people they're letting on the scheme!
Bolleaux! This is an entirely appropriate place to air your problems and disappointments with the organisation you are paying for your training. You can be damn sure that OAT reads this forum, and will hate the fact that inadequacies in their organisation are being made public, because such revelations will affect their bottom line!

Neither Oxford nor any other school are doing you a favour by training you. You have paid a huge amount of money for your training, and you deserve treatment in accordance with that expenditure. If you give anyone £60,000 for anything, you should expect absolutely perfect service, and you are entitled to shout it from the rafters if you don't get it. That way, something will get done!

That is as big a load of rubbish as I've read on these forums in some years. CTC playing at it? You really have a very strange idea of what's going on in this industry!
