Phooey Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Now that would be a dream job ... I might have been tempted myself if I knew what the hell I was talking about. I meet all requirements apart from industry experience. I guess that is the most important though. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could at least enquire if you're interested - and watch some motorbike school teaching vids on YouTube to get an idea of what to say to students etc. I think you'd find the words if you had a noob to train though .

Mr Fro Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Out of interest because I've not got a clue as to what one is... What exactly is a motorcycle lecturer?It sounds like an excruciatingly vague job title and could be almost anything! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonniebird Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Yeah, is it in motorcycle maintenance, design engineering, riding/racing them, history, culture?Sounds like they could do with a lecturer in writing job descriptions.I could lecture in motorcycle appreciation maybe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phooey Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Good point guys ... Hmmm. What could the subject matter be. As interesting as it might sound Moo, I wouldn't be able to return to my current job that easily if I left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozzie Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 It will be a motorcycle engineer lecturer. Likely discussing modules like suspension and brakes, frame and engine, and aerodynamic design etc. Basically if you've worked in a design office for a automotive company and understand the various components and their impact on each other from a design point of view you've got the experience they want and all you need is a qualification to teach. Would be my dream job too! Other than actually designing the engines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredc Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 If you are suitable qualified most colleges allow you to study for a Teaching qualification while on the jobWhere I used to work some engineering lecturers had been there 7 years but not started TQF There was a shortage of lecturers and they could not be spared for 1 day a week on a course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BikerMooFromMars Posted August 29, 2015 Author Share Posted August 29, 2015 Haha, I only skim-read it, assumed it was a DAS/CBT instructor or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bex Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 A motorcycle lecturer will be someone like me, with a motorcycle engineering degree and a teaching degree who can teach in all aspects of motorcycles from maintenance to CAD and CFD, materials , manufacturing and many other aspects. shame they are not paying london wages. and i am already teaching.
