4. BRS Curriculum Review – data
Pass / Fail / Dropout
Incident Reports
MO Instructor Experience (Survey)
MO Student Experience (Survey)
Field Observations
IPCs and other Experiences
Crash Data
Here's a list of some of the information we considered.
Let's take a closer look at the data.

5. Passing rates over time
Pass rate DOWN
Passing rates are down. While we're not here simply to pass students Not alarming, but concerning. Why? We've made comparisons with other providers. We believe can do better.
BRC in Troy 84%
BRC in VT 90%

6. Failing rates over time
F/S UP (~50%)
F/D UP (~100%)
While F/A rate has remained steady over time 6.5, F/S rate has increased by 50% 12 and F/D rate has nearly doubled 4.

7. Incident reports over time
Before most occurred when?
Quick Stop
Since most occurred when?
Getting Underway
Incident numbers have doubled. Big hitter used to be the Quick Stop. Now it's Getting Underway. I know what your thinking. That’s only because we started reporting all those “minor” incidents in That’s what I thought at first too.

8. Injuries over time Common reasons? Braking while turning
Too much front brake
Injuries doubled too. Often in conjunction with BWT and TMFB Let’s dig a little deeper.

9. 911 calls over time Excessive speed
30% of 911 calls in 2018 took place during cornering exercises.
Reasons?
Braking while turning
Excessive speed
Record number of 911 calls last year. 30% in cornering exercises or evaluations. New for us. Speed is now a bigger factor.

4. As requested, more Unit 4 content to help on range and in later classroom discussions (SIPDE, Cornering and Maximum Braking) that build on this material.
5.Unit 5 A common area of misunderstanding and deficiency in the classroom. Revised to help with transitions, flow and meaningful discussion.
